The bottom of the boot was easier. Traced the shape of the sole of the boot and reduced it on my computer. Cut a thick piece out of gumpaste and placed on bent cardboard to hold shape. Then just shaped a handful of gumpaste for the foot part of the boot. The neck part took about 1 1/2 hours to figure out. Taped 2 rolls of papertowel cardboard (one was tapered at bottom to fit onto other one) and covered with gumpaste to semi-dry. Scrunched it abit first. Then removed it and let it dry in a short glass
This is beautiful...My son is turning 4 next week and wants a cowboy cake, this is inspirational. How did you do the hat and boot if you don't mind sharing?
