ok...I'm not sure where else to put these tips so here goes.... the base is a 10" square pan covered with white yellow and orange fondant that I mixed together to accomplish a swirl effect, the body was made with the wonder mold(doll pan) and an 8" round pan shaved on all sides to thin out body a little but still keeping the bottom wider, I used the ball pan for the head but trimmed more from the center to make it oval, slice wedge for mouth, fondant for arms,legs, eyes,nose, food color for eyes, extr...
OMG! He looks so realistic, UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! I just love him, mine can't compare, it's just the best Elmo I've ever seen! Great work. Think I'll do your Elmo next time someone wants one. - If you don't mind me copying that is.
extra cake mix for cupcakes...used caps of cupcakes for the base of feet and hands, be sure to use four dowels under the elmo and a cardboard base, also use two or three dowels going through the body and head for added support, I used toothpicks to hold the arms and legs in place due to time constrants. I did not use a lot of cake for the hands and feet.use icing to form their shapes, the thumbs are all icing. Have fun with the grass tip.OMG I almost forgot:crumb coat everything!!
I have never seen so many comments for one cake!!! Awesome job. Just got an order for an elmo cake...not sure if I dare attempt something like this. Kudos to you!
this Elmo cake is awesome!!!! I would like to try & make it for my daughter's 2nd birthday. I am curious about the fur. I see that you noted a grass tip. Is the fur made of icing or is that fondant as well? Any other instructions you can provide me with would be wonderful! thanks! I can only hope that I can do as well!!
Give yourself a pat on the back, cause that is fantastic. I would like to know how you made it. My sons first birthday is coming up and I would like to make it for him.
not to sound like a broken record but like all the other people who have commented on this cake, it is absolutely amazing!! you are such an artist. kudos on a great masterpiece!
