This Backyard Pond Cake was so much fun to make. I made it for my sister-in-laws wedding. The wedding took place in her backyard, where she has a beautiful pond. I used a boxed cake mix and buttercream icing (recipe in the Wilton cake books). The trees were made with plastic cones and buttercream icing.
I created the water using blue and green piping gel. The cat tails are made with spaghetti and tootsie rolls on the ends. The fire pit was made with chocolate pebbles (found at my local bulk store) and broken up cinnamon sticks. Surrounding the fire are tootsie roll logs as well as one floating in the pond. The rest of the details are simply buttercream icing piped.
