Graduation For An Old Film Buff

Graduation For An Old Film Buff on Cake Central

High School graduation for a young lady who really likes old movies. Her mother says her favorite is "Meet Me In St. Louis", so I thought a film set "clapper" would be fun and she really liked it. With many thanks to eilers who was very generous with design assistance.

Great idea, I love the colors and your BC is so smooth! How did you make the "clapper"? it looks great.

clapper is made of chocolate. I melted both white and dark, laid parchment over my pattern and did the white areas first. After a little bit dry, I added the dark areas. Then I went over it multiple times to insure thickness so the top of the clapper wouldn't break off. It was nearly 1/4" thick when I finished, but she loved it, especially since it showed where she's going to college, etc.
