Hi All,

My son has asked for the attached cake

www.bridepop.com/wedding-cakes/awesome-star-wars-wedding-cake/

How do you think the legs were done? I don't think they are cake, or even RKT. Anyone have any ideas?

I don't know what she made them out of, but I think you can use RKT. They don't need to support anything and as long as you let the RKT dry hard enough, I think you'll be fine. That being said - if the RKT dries so hard that no one will want to eat it, you might as well use cardboard (like from a cakeboard.) Or...you can use RKT, and support them with a dowel through them so they don't sag.... I'm just spit-balling here, though....
