I was sent this pic via email from a client. I have no Idea who to give credit to due to the fact I don't know where the pic came from. This is the question..... how do I even attempt to make this absolutely beautiful cake. I know mine would never be as georgeous, but I need to make it as close to possible. I'm assuming it's mostly fondant which I can do, but how would I make the booties?

Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.

The booties look like they are made from white chocolate.... They don't look like they were made from gumpaste based on the depth of the inside of the shoe. Here's a baby bootie chocolate mold. You can probably find it at any candy supply shop... http://www.sugarcraft.com/catalog/candymolds/M-baby/90-11582.jpg
Here's another picture of a cake using the mold...http://www.sugarcraft.com/catalog/candymolds/M-baby/booties-szcakes.jpg I'm not sure who made this cake..It was a picture of the same website that was selling the mold.

Just looking at that site tami,
Some of my books have the directions to make them, but would have to find.
I know that American cake decorator mag had
a article awhile back.
Man, I need to get my articles and books in order!

I would agree that the booties do indeed look like they were molded from chocolate rather than fondant.

TamiAZ, that cake was made by Sharon of Sharon's Sugarshack, or Sugarshack as she is known here on CC.
