Hi guys,

I've been asked to do a 40th anniversary cake for a friend.  Attached is a photo of the centerpieces they are using.  I have the chocolate shell molds I'm just not sure how to do the branches.  I've also attached a photo from Cake Central Magazine. Anyone know if the branches are fondant or real?  If fondant how it was done?  I'm assuming thin wire with gumpaste applied.

Any suggestions you can offer would be appreciated.

ALooks to me like they are real, maybe you could go to your local florist and ask if they have anything in rock that you could use , take the picture with you, or have a look in the garden x good luck ..post a pic when you have made :D

AAnything in stock not rock !!!! Lol

Locks real to me too. Anything in stock rocks! Just wrap any part that contacts the  cake in plastic wrap

It looks so real, especially the tiny buds that are on a few of the sticks.  The website address is written on her photo.  Try checking it out.  narajadenoveltycakes.com  It's a nice cake, good luck.
