wow that is amazing..How in the heck did you get the rock effect..And is the light house edible? This is just a nice piece of art!!

CakesUnleashed on 21 Mar 2005 , 11:21pm

Thank You! This was my second cake to decorate and I really, really want to take a class! But, I live in the boonies and there are no classes around! Yes, it is ALL edible. The rock effect was crumbled graham crackers that I dipped in grey buttercream frosting! I let them dry on wax paper then just piled them on!

Hi Tanyascakes! I emailed the product list of items I used to create this cake. Thanks for your inquiry! You made my day. Tripletmom - I used rolled fondant and tiny cookie cutters for the fish!

I too am new and would like to know how you made this...I have a client who LOVES lightouses as does my DH my email is [email protected] Thanks in advance!

imartsy on 1 Dec 2006 , 3:18pm

awesome! what IS the lighthouse made of? [email protected]

CakesUnleashed on 1 Dec 2006 , 5:54pm

Thank you all! As you may have noted in previous comments, my computer crashed with all the ingredients and instructions I created for this cake. However, I will tell you that I used Rice Krispie Treats and cookies to create the lighthouse. The RK treats and cookies have a large wooden dowel through the middle and are covered in MMF. The cake on the bottom is just a three layered 8" yellow cake with butter cream and light blue piping gel over fondant fish. See above for the rock effect.

bontie on 12 Apr 2005 , 1:15am

I love your cake! I collect lighthouses and would love to try to make this cake. Would you be able to send me the list also? Thanks! [email protected]

kelleym on 13 Dec 2006 , 10:46pm
