For a friend. Normally I don't like to put plastic on my cakes.....I want to keep it ALL edible as much as possible (except for structure and support), but this was for a friend and I agreed to put the little army men on it. Without them it would look dumb right?! LOL! So, except for the men and the toothpick I needed for the flag, it's all edible.....chocolate on chocolate with fondant and gumpaste accents! TFL!
