Any ideas on where i would start if i had to make this out of fruit cake? Would it be possible? Im up for the challange 
Most of it has to be made out of cake...
What do you all think? Thanks

body yes
head -- cereal treat (rice crispie treats or similar)
the snow globe is the challenge --
if want clear would have to be a blown sugar bubble -- but then how do you get Tink inside?
could do globe as a ball of cake and then put pics of Tink on just the two sides (left and right) -- then cake would be displayed to be seen from sides.
haha Great, so im not crazy? haha Well i will be having some late nights on this one
I wasnt going to do the snowglobe i was just going to have tinkerbell there.
The wood that peter is sitting on is easy... his body... would you do that in two bits? like his bottom half(legs etc) and then hes top half? arms and face would have to be modeling paste (they would look more realistic)...
I REEEEEALLY want you to do this! I'm dying to see it.
You could totally do the crystal ball but it can't be blown. Blown sugar (i'm learning about this in school right now) won't be clear, it would wind up cloudy looking. BUT you could make it out of POURED sugar if you could just find something to use as a mold. You make the tinkerbell out of gumpaste, pour some of the ball, let it set just a little bit, put her in and then pour the rest. I don't know for sure if gumpaste would melt, but if not it would be so cool!
Hmmmmmm...I know what my mind is going to be thinking about all night!

YES!!! Clear gelatin all the way (maybe using mini ball pain?)!! Insert Tink (dried) into liquid and allow to congeal. Oh yes, i want to see this one when complete!! Go, Delicate-Lee, go!! LOL!!
OR - if you have a Hobby Lobby (or other craft store) close by you, they have those round plastic Christmas ball ornimates that snap together like the plastic easter eggs. Wonder if that would work? The link below shows you what I am referring to. I haven't looked at a craft store yet cuz I'm in a hurry.

Aww Thanks for the boost! Im a little scared but Im going to give it a go! I will start baking tha fruit cake next week and start from there! i will keep you all posted! any more ideas are welcome! Thanks Everyone!
This will be my first real hard hard challange out of my comfort zone
Wow that is gonna make one awesome cake... now just a suggestion for the snowglobe... just recently at cake guild one of the ladies demonstrated snowglobes... you use gelatine inside a clear half round ball which you make two of and it makes a hollow ball which you then make whatever you want to go in it out of your icing then put the gelatine ball round it joining it together with royal icing although i am sure there would be another way if you had the time to play with the ball.. make several so incase of breakage... you put a little of the gelatine in the half ball like you would make a hollow easter egg leave standing upside down until it peels away from the ball then it is completely dry... while we though sprinkle some edible glitter for the snow effect... i do have the written instructions if you want me to email to you... just pm me or email me i will scan and send them... good luck would love to see a pic when all done...
