Tatty Teddy Cake

heres a cake done in the same style as my horse cake, except the buyer requested chocolate buttons instead of smarties!...i think i could have done better as it was a little rushed.

I think the cracks adds to the tattered look to the teddy. It's very cute!! You might want to try heating the MMF ball just a bit in the microwave then roll the ball shape around again. I think that might help. You did a excellent job!!

He's so cute!! as for the crack...just as denise said...put it in the microwave to soften it up a bit but BE CAREFUL when you remove it...I ended up with 2nd degree burns from it once! Only put it in for a few seconds at a time!

I absolutely love the bear! And I also agree with Mousey & Denise the cracks give it character. You did a great job!

This is a beautiful cake, your teddy is just adorable. Great job even with the crack it gives him character.

I find the best way to keep fondant figures smooth is to make sure that I rub the fondant in my hands for a while. When making a teddy's body like yours. take the paste and roll it into a ball in your hand first for a minute or so, you'll notice the heat from your hands will smooth it out and also give it a nice shine
