Heya, I was just wondering how you make the flat but of the graduation hat!?
Like this beautiful cake ![]()

I know the person said the hat was cardboard covered with cloth, but is there any other ways of making this?
Thanks ![]()
I rolled out a flat piece of black fondant/gumaste mix about three days ahead of time and let it dry for the top of the hat. For the base, I turned a cupcake upsidedown and covered it with black fondant. I used a clay extruder for the string and tassels.
HTH.
I did the same. Cut out a piece of back fondant and the another to shape as a ring for the "morter board" to sit on.

Thank you everyone ![]()
And I am gobsmacked over how BEAUTIFUL that cake is!? How on earth can you eat something so pretty!?
I used a small 1/2 ball pan for the base (you could use cake or rice krispy treats) and graham crackers for the top. Cover with fondant and place on your cake.
