2-layer chocolate fudge cake iced in butter cream icing. Bottom layer was sprayed with a base coat using my airbrush. All the animals hand-cut with an exacto knife from fondant. Some leaves hand cut, and others I used a cutter. Wasn't sure when I started what I was going to do with the top layer, but then hit upon the sonshine .... after all it was their first son that was born! The sun was made from gumpaste.
