The Boy Scouts Camping Cake was able to feed 80 people. I used gum paste and fondant for the boy scout figures and ginger bread for the house. As for the tress I used rice crisp then piped over them using butter cream frosting. The entire cake was covered in butter cream then sprinkled with powdered sugar for the snow effect.
Coolest Boy Scouts Camping Cake
i was wondering do you mix the fondant and gum paste together. I’m making a cake and was going to use fondant. I also need to make figures so do I mix the two together for the figures?
I did not mix the 2 together. I used fondant for the clothing and gum paste for the bodies. Gum paste seems to harden better then fondant and it molds better. Good luck on your cake I will be posting another cake here in the next week if you need any more ideas and please contact me if you need any help. Thank You
Very nice..question- wont the characters get soft sitting on the buttercream? Making a wedding cake the bride wants buttercream frosting with gumpaste orchids, I haven’t done this before but I believe the orchids will get soft. I don’t want a disaster.
Thanks
I need to make 3 scouts. I cannot enlarge your picture. Would you be able to email me? Also, I would like to talk to you on how you made them. I purchased cake topper ones but they are really sad looking.
