After the antler are made, use melted white chocolate to cover them and when dry, dust with cocoa powder.

Ericr..these directions are out of a "Mailbox News" magazine from quite a few years ago..I know because I had that issue and lost it boohoo. 

I made this cake once..I remember the antlers were made with wire that was covered in masking tape, then colored royal icing, although she says chocolate. The rest is just following the pictures--the originals weren't much clearer  or easier to follow.

thank you for you time . :)
