Wooden Cake

Wooden Cake on Cake Central

My friend requested a "piece of wood" for her husband who does woodworking... I tried to be as creative with it as I could (and I'm very pleased with what I managed to come up with!). Chocolate cake is covered in bc and Satin Ice. I carved the woodgrain in and painted with gel colors and luster dust. Chisel is sculpted from fondant as well. Wood "shavings" are white chocolate curls. I wish I'd gotten the carved letters painted a little more neatly, but at least it's supposed to be from the kids!
