Kaminsky Birthday Cake
This was a strange little fellow. The mother sent me a picture of a picture and wanted me to recreate it. Don't ask me what it's supposed to mean...... Each body part was made from royal icing or gumpaste or a combination of both and then I painted it. It came out exactly like the picture and she was almost in tears when she picked it up. White chocolate pound cake with coconut filling and cocout buttercream.
I think this is the coolest cake - what a design. Have no idea either who he is - but its great. Interesting technique how you used RI and GP to make him. Nice work!
What I did was pipe his head minus the mohawk & eyes. Let that dry real good, then went in with gumpaste and put it in his eyes, (making sure I blended the gumpaste to the RI so it would adhere) so they would protrude more and then made the mohawk. You can't really tell it from the pic but his hair stands up about 1". His shoes are RI.
