Helicopter was molded out of ready made Rice Kripy treats. It took about 15 minutes to form. I then covered the body with fondant. It took about 15 minutes to form. The blades were made out of Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil and attached to cake with a skewer. I used 2 cake mixes and covered the cake in Buttercream icing and then set the helicopter on top of the cake. Very easy.....
