Woo, I saw one in one of the Wilton yearbooks, like 2004 or 2005. It was so cute, it had clowns sitting around a tent and I think animal crackers around the side or something like that, it was very cute..
Good luck,
Jenny

i've had an idea for a while but never been brave enough to try it and it might help you. if you mix gum paste and mmf togethor it will harden into almost any molded shape given time so if you can rig a small piece of styrofoam to the middle of say a 10" or 8" round pan(from the underside) you could (i think) mold a sheet of this gum paste-mmf mix into the top of a circus tent or carousel. for a under the big top type cake, maybe after it sets paint red stripes on the top. i used the same method over a ball pan to mold the hood to a bassinette cake so i think it would work but again i've never tried this exact way.

i really hope this is helpful--good luck thumbs_up.gif
