Watering Can Cake

I made this cake for a breast cancer auction. Cake is chocolate with orange buttercream, 6" round with 1/2 ball pan on top. Cake covered in homemade fondant. Handle, flowers and spout gumpaste. For the spout I wrapped gumpaste around a plastic dowel rod. Thank you for looking!

Wow, great looking cake. Such a versatile idea. I can think of several occasions it could be adapted to. Bet it went for a high bid!

Thinking about making this for a b-day, but was worried it would be difficult,, the spout part. You did great.
