Lord Of The Rings Cake

This cake was originally designed for the OSSAS wedding division, which had to be based on something from "Tinsal Town." I chose to base it off of the trilogy, "The Lord of the Rings." Unfortunately, I didn't finish it in time. :( After so much investment though, I had to finish it for myself. So, here's the finished product, with a lovely backdrop! Everything is fondant or gumpaste, except for the wire holding the pendant, and the sugar jewels in the top pendant.

It is exceptional and I am so sorry you weren't able to enter it because I really believe it would have placed in the top 3 of your division. Beautifully done!

Wow! It's absolutely lovely. Stunning, in a quiet, meditative way. Send a pic to Peter Jackson!

Such a stunning cake, beautiful detailing and amazing design. You can tell you put a lot of time and thought into your cake. I am so sorry you didn't get to do what you had originally designed it for. I love it! God Bless, Sharon

I'm speechless 8O ... really! My sister would love the theme for this cake ... I'm not a big fan of the books but your detailing almost makes me want to go raid my sister's library and read about it :wink: ... love the ornate details contrasted with the bricks ... seriously this is beautiful (I really like the backdrop ... even if you're only joking!)

I am blown away by your attention to detail. I took a peek at your up close pictures to see the details. I have been wanting to do a Lord of the Rings cake as well, and this has definitely inspired me.

My DD's name is Arwen :lol: , and I never even thought of replicating the Evenstar pendant for her cakes; this is a definate inspiration for a future one! She's 3, so I gotta wait until she's out of the Dora & such stages. :lol: But I love this cake, absolutely perfect, absolutely beautiful!
