Classic Pooh Baby Shower

I made this cake for my niece's shower. I made the figures from marzipan which was lots of fun -- like being a kid with modeling clay! The bassinet, rug and blanket are fondant and the cake is covered with chocolate buttercream. This was a lot of fun to make.

Thanks everyone! I got the idea from invitations we were lucky to find with the characters peering into a baby basket. To make the stump, I cut cake scraps and attached them to the sides at random. Then I piled on a thick layer of buttercream and combed the sides a few times with a fork. Glad you liked it!
