Fantastic!! I love it!! I thought of doing the stack of records like that for a 50's party!! You did a fabulous job, and I'm glad to see it works!!

This is so awesome, I'm adding to my faves for sure. I'm doing a 60th birthday party and the theme is a sock hop, this would be great. Can you tell me how you did the record player and the record labels? Thanks so much!

Thanks for all the comments! I painted the woodgrain using brown food color. The player is a 14" sq. and the pieces are fondant. The arm is a dowel with "formed"fondant on each end. The turntable is 3-10" cake circles glues together and covered in blk.fondant.The top is a sheet of fondant painted with silver LustreDust.

Oh, and the record labels are made of fondant in the colors seen and them hand painted with black food color with Tequila! I found records on eBay and printed out the labels to copy. Hope this helps.

Wow! You did an absolutely fabulous job! My DH was looking when I had this picture up on my screen and he actually commented that it looked like a "Duff" cake! He's my best & worst critic so that coming from him was high praises! Deservedly so!!!!!
