This is so awsome. I bet is was alot of fun to make too. I love all of the different animals. You should be charging about $100+ for this cake. I know know long it takes to make those cute little guys and they are worth the money!

When I first glanced I thought the animals were going to be plastic, they look so perfect. Then I had to look again! Really a great job, I'm sure you put a lot into it.
