a friend requested me to make a welcome home cake for her hubby coming from overseas work...her idea was a hard hat. and this is my first time to make a 3D shaped fondant cake... it came out really well.... and they liked it...I never thought i could make one like this. it was easier than I thought. this is a chocolate moist cake shaped into hard hat and covered with marshmallow fondant....to get the realistic color of the hard hat I combined yellow and a bit of orange tinge gel type coloring...
