Thank you all for the kind words. I used a mold made from styrofoam and covered it with food grade plastic then piped the basket in royal icing removing the mold when it hardened.
I made the grapes hollow using gum paste. I put some over the end of a dowell and removed the dowell and pinched it shut then worked it tight. Took a lot of tries.
Thank you to cake central for having these fun contests.
