Hi, a client send me this pic this cake. Does any of you have an idea of how to make the hand and arm? Is it like fondant?

Sorry about that, here's the pic.

My guess is there is some pipe in the arm, since that is what is supporting the cake. I could be covered with something before the fondant, just depends on how big your pipe is. The hand is probably something like rice crispie treats covered in fondant.

I think the Bronwen Weber caddy wampus stand was used, or someone made one like that.

I just saw another cake posted here, where you can see the stand clearly.
