This cake was a learning experience for sure! It was my first time using gum paste and modeling chocolate. The cake is chocolate with chocolate buttercream, and the smasher is chocolate with vanilla buttercream. Nice and messy for precious Nolan's first birthday cake in the face! The animals are (with the exeptions of the elephant, which is fondant) made of either dark or white modeling chocolate, and the cake is of course covered with MMF, like all my cakes., except for the smasher, which is only buttercream. The giraffe on the smasher is gum paste. I actually really like working with modeling chocolate, and it tastes so good!
