Hi,

I just got an order for a going away cake....for Sunday. This is what I came up with: A square or sheet cake with a gumpaste or RKT airplane flying from one state to the next state.

My question is how can I achieve the look of the airplane 'flying'? I was thinking of something like the soda/beer cakes, where it's suspended on the dowel with the drink pouring out.
But....how could I cover the dowel?

*Bonus question: If you were to highlight some popular places/things in Colorado, what would they be?

How big is the plane going to be?

use wire and loop the wire to look like the stream of exhaust that comes out of the plane.
I have attached pics that I found online
