And I seem to remember a post awhile ago about Duff's Hogwarts castle and how he did the texture on the trees. He explained that for a mosslike texture, or a tree-like texture, that he uses royal icing. He spreads it flat on a board or cookie sheet, and lets it dry. Once its dry he scraped it off and chopped it up really fine. He painted some piping gel on the fondant covered cake, and then just stuck the fine RI to it.
He did this for the Kung Fu Panda cake, it was the moss on the mountains. It looked really awesome and realistic! Just thought I would share.
Especially the fact that the heads of some of the characters were made with Fimo clay. It looked amazing though.
Great idea.
I am goona have to try it.
