my first cake sculpture After watching lots of cake sculpting videos online I felt inspired to have a go myself. My housemate is in a fishing match tomorrow and needs to take a raffle prize, so I offered to make a fish cake. The cake is 100% edible. I carved vanilla sponge, covered in buttercream icing, then laid fondant icing over the top which I have shaped and painted to resemble a carp.

For a first go I'm quite pleased with how it turned out, the tail bit is a bit wonky, but i'll know for next time.
