How Do You Create This Look On A Teddy Bear.

How do you create the teddy bear's fur? Is that fondant using an extruder?? Piping?? TIA




Thank you all for your responses. My piped fur does not look like the pic, so I thought it was some other method.
I confess that I don't have the patience to cut gum paste with a scissors. I'm thinking won't it be hard to cut the cake because of the gum paste?




640Cake & @ cara1982 That's the cake I was looking for,soooo cute. I could not remember where I saw it. I really liked the the look, you could just hug him. Thank you!!!!

Cara, that is SO cute, but I would lose my ever-lovin' mind!!!


I'm not sure if I have the time for it, I'm making the entire Bear ( Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See) for GD 2nd B day and I'm finishing up the " Moving UP" cakes for the oldest GD. When did we start doing graduations for Pre-K & Kindergarten? oye....
Maybe I could shrink him.......mini bear......lol

Ok, @cara1982 , I'm semi-obsessed with this cake now. What were the dimensions of your box, about 6 inches? And was the propped up lid gumpaste? And the bear...cake or RKT? I may try to recreate this for a shower for my soon-to-arrive niece. One thing is for shore, my bear will have ghetto piped fur, not deluxe hand-cut fur!
And @carolinecakes , you might need to say "no more grandkids" or you'll never sit down from caking!

Now that I think about it, though, @carolinecakes , isn't Brown Bear, Brown Bear an Eric Carle book? As in flat and streaky, not cuddly and furry?

It's short strips of fondant cut with scissors, rolled up and attached. I had to make this cake for a client. And that's how I made it. It takes a VERY LONG TIME though >_< @carolinecakes

Not as neat as @cara1982 ^_^

Cara & Fatima you guys amaze me, you have definitely raised the bar. Thank you for your input. If I don,t use this method for the 3D bear, I will use it on a cake topper. Now I just have to convince someone that they need one for their cake. lol
TwoThumbs2 The book was a gift set that came with a bear, he looks just like the picture in the book. I am making a 3D Bear, because its her favorite, she sleeps with the bear.
Yes the grand kids keep me busy, truthfully, I wouldn't have it any other way.

too funny.......yeah my bear may have to settle for the former.



@-K8memphis My 5 yr old GD just saw your avatar and asked me " Grandma is that cake?"

awww -- hahahaha -- he's sweet like cake but he's my doggy named tianshi pronounced chin shoo means angel in chinese -- he, like most dogs, loves balls especially that red one and every night we play fetch and keep away simultaneously -- he is so much fun -- tell your daughter me & chinny said 'hey'

He is an angel......soooo cute ( her words).
