Camping Cake
A birthday cake for my daughter, I drew inspiration from a great many of you here "cakelifting" bits and pieces from a number of cakes we saw in the galleries. Fondant with Buttercream details. The trees are buttercream piped with a leaf tip over sugar cones. The rocks are purchased candy, the river is white buttercream with blue piping gel swirled gently on top. Thank you to Hookste for the awesome picture of your campfire cake in low light - that was totally inspirational, and I managed to get a similar shot of our cake!

Light Saber
Buttercream covered light saber. I made this by baking the cake in an 8.5x11 cake pan. I cut it into strips, one being slightly thicker than the others, for the handle. I had to do a little carving to get it to taper nicely. I also had to go buy a 1" x 6' board to lay it on. I had my son's toy light saber on the table for inspiration.
