Probably Gumpaste, maybe fondant. It doesn't look too hard to make. It is pretty though!

I am wondering if it is a cutter or a mold? I have seen it on several cakes, so I am thinking it isn't done freehand?

If I were going to attempt this, I would first cut a circle out of gumpaste then cut straight down to the center then accross to the right. Like cutting a 1/4 wedge out of it. Then cut the other pieces out of colored gumpaste and layer them accordingly. Use a little water or piping gel for glue.

I think Cricut has a cartridge that cuts that same carriage out. Looks like they added the fringe & the handle though. Really cute! icon_smile.gif
