Summer Fun-Dant!

It's summer and I haven't really had a chance to work with fondant very much, so I decided to make a summer cake. I had seen a cake on CC that someone did with a pool that I liked. The water looked so real. I used colored piping gel for mine. I used coconut and food coloring for the grass. The cake is devil's food (thought that would look more like dirt showing through). I tinted some buttercream to match the grass. The food, drinks, table, umbrella, picnic basket, towels, flowers and little bald people in floats are all made with fondant. Everything is edible except the umbrella pole which is a lollipop stick. The cake was approximately 11x13 with a 6" round carved cake for the pool. I had a blast making this cake. I will definately be working with fondant again. Thanks to everyone at Cake Central for the inspiration and thanks for looking.
