The basket was done in royal icing as this is a dummy cake. Grapes, plums, cherry tomatoes, garlic, cucumber, tablecloth and peppers are all made from fondant. The apple, peach, potatoes, corn, and carrots are formed rice krispy treats and then covered with fondant. Basket handle is made from gum paste. The filler 'straw' packing material is made from fondant that I forced through an extruder. It looked like whole wheat spaghetti until it dried and I broke it up into smaller pieces. I also used some of the faux straw for the end of the garlic. The wood for the table top was 5 different colors of fondant (white, tan, yellow, pumpkin orange and black) that I rolled into long ropes and then rolled it out and stained it with Ever-clear and chocolate brown petal dust. Everything was shaded with petal dust.

Well I do believe that Les & Sandra are probably neck & neck Katy for #2. I hope so cause they both deserve it. :o)
I'm going to stay completely impartial here (yeh right). I want all my friends to win. I want Linda to win, I want Sandra to win, I want Les to win. But you can't always get what you want, right? Just so long as one of them does, I will be a happy bunny.
