I made this cake for a cub scout auction. It took awhile to make, but was able to complete it with the help of my cub scout, as per the rules. He loved making it and it didn't get overwhelming for him. It took a long time to pipe the trees since he wanted lots. Also, he wanted a river, so we spread blue icing along the bottom and put candy rocks on the edges. I used poured fondant for the cookie sleeping bags so that they were smooth. After they dried we carefully lifted them off the wax paper to the cake, then piped the heads.

This cake got my son $400 at a cake auction for boyscouts. It turned out great. But it is very tedious making all the leaves on the trees and bushes as well as the litttle people. But it was fun and I learned a bunch while doing it.

I made this for my Husbands Birthday adding a tent out of fondant. This is what we look like when we go camping. Cast iron pan with a fish in it by the fire added the finishing touch. Got a great reaction from everyone on this cake. Took me a little bit since I don't work with fontant much.
