Lord Of The Rings Hobbit Hole/bag End

This was a birthday cake for my brother, who turned 40. He's loved Tolkien since he was a kid. I figured he'd be thrilled with this cake...and he was! I made it with lots of love! Toba Garrett Chocolate Fudge Cake with WBH Chocolate Mousse and Chocolate BC, Hazlenut cake with Frangelico BC. Used Michelle's fondant recipe for grass, mound. Gumpaste for birdhouse, gate. Royal Icing on wires for bush, vines, part of fence, and grass.

You did great on this. I love all the details. You even put grass between the cracks in the walk. How did you do the texture of the grass?

I was going to use tip 233, but then decided to use Debbie Brown's method. She suggests using a star tip. I tried different sizes and just poked it in and out. It took forever! Thanks so much for the compliments. I really like how this one turned out...I'm starting to see the progress in my skills.
