Sorry, guys, my brain is completely dry. I'm making an 8-inch round for a friend's little girl next week, which has to be Smurf-related. I don't want to carve it, but have been contemplating supplementing with RKTs to mold a hat on top? Or something along those lines? ... ARGH! No idea what to do ... I'm very comfortable with carving and novelty cakes, and use fondant for my cakes, but just have no ideas right now, and will appreciate any suggestions!!

Thanks!!

What about a FBCT of a smurf!

How about a border of smurfs printed on frosting sheet?
For the top, you can make mushroom houses and sort of make it look like smurf's village?!
HTH

How about a 3d model of the smurf's and their huts? The figures are quite basic and it could be fun to do.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! I'll get back to you on how it all worked out ... will be brainstorming some more over the next couple of days .

Okay, here's the final product! Thanks for the brainstorming help, guys!
