Guitar Cake

Guitar Cake on Cake Central

Life size - my largest non wedding cake ever. Yellow cake with airbrushed vanilla buttercream. Everything is edible except for the strings. Thanks to my fiance (a huge guitar enthusiast) for the finishing touches!

Great job. How did you get the shine on the neck? Also, did you use fondant for the guard plate and you said the strings are not edible, what did you use?

The neck is actually covered in fondant, and was airbrushed. The guard plate is 50/50 fondant/sugarpaste that was also airbrushed black. Unfortunaltely the strings are fishing line and I was not able to get them tight enough for my liking. I I ever attempt this cake again, I will need to think of a better way to do the strings!
