Violin Grooms Wedding Cake

Violin Cake

I made this cake for a wedding. It was for the groom who plays the violin.

Every thing is edible on the cake except for the strings. The violin is the same

size as a standard violin. The flowers and shamrocks are all made from gum paste.

Thank you so much for your comments!! And for the details, the neck of the violin is rice crispy treats. The bottom half is the cake and every thing else is fondant and gum paste. So only part of it went into the oven.;)
