I've been asked to do a groom's cake in the shape of a firefighter's jacket as if it was dropped on the floor with the back of the jacket facing up....she wants wrinkles around the sleeves and at the bottom, and the groom's name across the yellow stripe on the back. I think I can figure this out....but this is WAY more difficult than anything I've ever done before!! I can't find any pictures of anything like this....I'd love some expert advice and ideas on how to go about doing this!!!

Thanks in advance,
Launa

Anyone out there???

bump!

I did a google image search and the following links are the closest things I could find to what you are describing. I'm not sure how much they will help, but they're worth a shot. Good luck!

I couldn't open those first two links. I asked her to send a photo of the groom's jacket just as she wants the cake. I've carved a baby onsie before, so I think I should be able to do this...I've just never done the fondant part where she wants the sleeves and the bottom of the coat to be wrinkled. It should be interesting, that's for sure!!
