Made this for my son's 5th Birthday (Feb 2012) It took 3 days to decorate but it was all worth it. He loved his cake. Made everything from fondant/gumpaste. Except for the sails (which was made from Rice Paper), the post (dowels) and the black skull head (which was a ring). Used Piping gel for the water effect. The ship is named 'The Valentine' cause my son was born on Valentine's Day. Hope you enjoy!!
