Cell Phone Birthday Cake

My first paid for cake! They requested a cell phone cake. I made this with fondant and gumpaste for the figures. It is a chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting. I found that the cream cheese frosting was not very stable. I only used it as the filling and to ice it. The icing still gave me problems by shifting the cake. I normally use mmf or wilton fondant, but this time I decided to use Satin Ice which I have seen used a lot on cake shows. It was horrible. Easy to mold and fold, but when I rolled it out there was a lot of breakage. I don't know if this is normal or I just got a bad batch. It sure was expensive compared to the other fondant choices that work better. Happy day to you!
