Yes, you read that right. I am making a male torso but instead of a penis, it will have a flute. What I cannot figure out is how to make it look like the flute is the penis (and not just a flute laying across his legs) I dont want it sticking straight out, that would look funny. Should I just have it lay across his leg, maybe at an angle? Should I make it shorter then most flutes? (I was going to make the flute out of gum paste)
a flute is so much more skinnier and longer then well, unless well, you are poor guy.

It will also have the testicles!

Any ideas welcomed!

This is my funny response, I am chuckling as I am typing. So I googled piccolo. It is shorter than a flute and in Italian means small (according to Wikipedia). Not sure if it has to be a flute or can be a piccolo.
A natural laying on the leg, like you said, might look better than sticking straight out.

Good Luck!

strange request... perhaps you can put a little 'helmet' at the end of it!!!

A recorder is a wooden flute...would that work, or must it be a traditional silver flute? A recorder has the right shape and looks almost like "man's best friend" without any alteration. Imagine the mouthpiece as the "business end" lol!

I assume it is a silver flute, as the traditional kind, but that is a good question I will have to ask the customer...

(hey I only take the orders, I tell all my customers I am their cake slave and will do anything they want, no questions asked. hahaha)

(Love the Wallis and Gromit avatar!)

I know exactly what you mean...I tell my clients I will do whatever they want, and tho sometimes I cringe...I do it. Sometimes I feel so dirty hahahahahahaha just kidding

Thanks! I think Wallace & Gromit are great too!

I checked with the client and they do want it to be a silver flute...so this will be interesting! I will post a photo for sure..

Thanks for your help!

(PS I wish they would make another W&G movie! Cheeeese!)

Nick Park/Aardman Animation do have another W&G short movie!
My avatar is from "Wallace & Gromit: A Matter of Loaf and Death" about a BAKERY!

I hope you have seen all the other W&Gs:
A Grand Day Out
The Wrong Trousers
A Close Shave
The Curse of the Were Rabbit

Other things you might have heard of, in the same style, by Aardman Animation:
Creature Comforts
Shaun the Sheep
Chicken Run

Can you tell I'm a big fan?

We always make fun my stepson who's name is Sean....in our best Wallace voice "Seaaaannn!"

I saw your cake on the station's website. It was great!!! I like your stuff better than Naughty and Iced.
