Ok, my husband deserves the credit on this one. I baked and applied the fondant, but he sculpted it, airbrushed it, and added the most amazing details and textures. I'm really proud of him (and the cake!). He's handy and pretty wonderful.

That is just AMAZING What a Husband, what size cake was it. Well Done.Is it sponge. I am overwhelmed Just magnificent. What was the request for the order?

The head was a 6 inch oval, and the body was a 10 inch oval. The tail was sculpted fondant. I just used marble cake, torted and filled with buttercream. Thanks!

That's not cake decorating; that's ART! I couldn't even begin to imagine how to go about a cake like this. LOL

Thank-you....I am passing along the compliments to my hubby. Honestly, I don't think I could have done this. He just gets really into it, and hours later, there's some amazing, mind-blowing cake. I hope our baby gets his genes!!

What an incredible cake. . . WOW! My husband helps me alot with mu elaborate cakes. This past weekend I had a large wedding cake that was due yessterday. Husband stayed up with me all night to complete the order and lift the big thing from our home to my mini van. As an expression of thanks, I took him out to a nice restaurant for brunch afterward. Don't forget to reward your terrific helper. They are no different then we are and appreciate the recognition for all their help. You both did good! :...

I am sure that you have heard all the wowness and greatness before... but this cake rivals something that Duff and his crew would create!! This might even top some of their designs in detailing and creativity!! Totally super cool... wicked and just plain awesome!!!
