Update on the cake...

Last Saturday was the wedding day -- my niece was wed in a beautiful, charming, cheerful ceremony in Dallas. I mentioned her groom's cake in my previous post. Today I can elaborate on it, since the surprise element is past.

Her fiance is an avid hunter, fisherman, outdoorsman. He had received the mounted head of a deer that he had shot as a gift from a family friend. My niece spirited it away to Frosted Art for Bronwen Webber to use as a model for a cake that hung on the wall.

The bottom part of the mount is some kind of support with the top-side of the back and neck and head being the cake. It is covered in fondant and hand sculpted and painted. The antlers are fondant.
