 This was made for a cake contest. It's all edible. The arms and legs are modeling chocolate, the head and trunk are cake covered in buttercream and fondant. The birdhouses and details are fondant. The cake stands about two feet tall. The support is a copper tube running from the foot to the top of the leaves. I watched nearly two seasons of "Dead Like Me" while I made this cake, so that gives you an idea of how long it took me. It was loads of fun!

I really loved your concept, it’s so original and amusing, not to mention that it’s a cake! Bloody hell, it’s brilliant 1 well done!

:-) Cristy Ann Ballard replies: "Well I can’t take credit for the concept. This was inspired by a design on Threadless, which is what the contest was for. We had to pick a design and interpret it through cake. "
