Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
I'm a bit of a baker, and I'm intimidated by that cake. The neck looks impossible!

Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
The neck freaks me out. What about making it a 2D cake and lay it all down?

Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
Are you planning on making this stand like 3 dimensional?
Or is it FLAT with a 3 d look?
I think I could do it if it was Flat... You could probably re-create it Flat and still get a great reaction...
If it is Standing... there is no way I would attempt that yet and I bake a lot... lol

Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
yes it is standing.. It looks like the neck, ears and legs are made out of cookies.. I think I'm gonna try it once now and if see if I can just put it together before even attempting the Icing.. I have 2 months, do you think that's enough time to practice?
Anyone else have any good websites to get ideas for birthday cakes without fondant, i've never worked with that stuff.

Doesn't sound that bad to do, with a lot of patience. For extra support I would put a dowel rod from the head thru the neck into the body.

Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
I just did a sitting bear...and I found that tough! Took me 3 tries to even get the cake right...to be sitting and not falling apart HA. But, I would try it at least...and just stick tons of sticks in that neck. It's def cute....but I can see how hard it'll be. And then transporting it....aaah!

Re: SPR: bakers.. am I crazy?
I just looked at the recipe and I felt like I needed Cliff Notes to get through it. Some of the stuff didn't even make sense to me. It might as well have been in greek!
For example:
In advance: Prepare base board using 1/2 sports ball and football pans with neck and leg patterns for size. Cut to fit and wrap with foil
I got that far and was like
Then I had to stop because I felt very unintelligant!
But that cake is CRAZY CUTE!
Anyone who can make that thing has some AMAZING talent!
