Alaska Native

This was for an Alaskan native. It has the typical wildlife of Copper River salmon, moose, grizzly and polar bears, a fishing boat that resembles one the birthday girl worked on as a teenager, and the Alaskan mountain range all around. All the decorations are gumpaste or fondant, and the boat is rice krispy treats covered with gumpaste. I painted the fondant mountains with grey food color, painted on the pine trees, then used royal icing to add snow. The boat is named after the birthday girl and her birthdate and place are the registration number on the boat. This is one of my all time favorite cakes. The cake was Italian Cream cake with cream cheese filling and buttercream icing.
