I want to learn how to model figures for my cakes. what are the best books, authors or websites I can find to learn how to do this craft. I need to make a bride and groom for a grooms cake for June 21st. I have time to learn, but I need to start my research now. All suggestions will be appreciated.

maybe she can point you in a direction. good luck and let me know, I would love to work but with melted choc...fondant hates me...lol

Hi there, aine2's tuorials are the best thing to start. Here is the link to her blog,

http://www.extra-icing.blogspot.com/

From there you can visit her website. There you will find loads of free videos and for the figure modeling, you might have to buy them online. I bought them and it really helped me a lot! Worth the every penny spent.

HTH!

Besides aine2's great work any book on Sculpy &/or polymer clay is invaluable.
