10 inch round yellow cake filled with chocolate ganache, 3 layers high. The cake was then crumb coated and covered in MMF. The elephant was made using a 3d teddy bear cake pan and then modifying the cake by adding buttercream and smoothing it out and freezing it. Then covered it in MMF and molded to the body. The ears were added onto the elephant and paper toweling kept the folds in place as it was in the freezer overnight. then before we left, i took the paper toweling off of the ears and attached the elephant to the base of the cake.
