Very pretty indeed. I've never known of an entry level class that taught fondant and gumpaste. What class are you taking?

I took the Wilton Fondant and Gumpaste class at Michaels. No previous courses were required at the location where I took the class although other locations in Atlanta did require Wilton Course 1 as a prerequisite.

Absolute gorgeous! I keep looking at everytime I see it on the popular photos for the day! Beautiful work!

It just goes to show you how important the instructor is. I didn't end that class with nearly as many flowers learned nor a cake so beautiful. Your cake is truly amazing.

You did a wonderful job! I love it so colorful. Did you have a template for the little bugs? Would you mind passing it along?

Unfortunately, there is no template for the cake. It was all hand-shaped from gumpaste. I have worked with polymer clay for 25 years and that experience seems to transfer pretty well to fondant and gumpaste.

Very lovely cake, good for you it's just unbelivable it's your fist one. I can amagine your next one and many more how they will look likw. Great job!!! ;-D

The grass around the side of the cake was free hand cut from gumpaste. The vines are gumpaste run through a clay gun. Thanks for the compliment.
