I was asked to make a man's birthday cake for this Saturday.
I was told that he liked fishing.
So after trying to decide how I was going to create a fishing cake, but still make it one-of-a-kind (you know not just the themed ones you can buy in the freezer section at grocery stores).............
I was inspired.
And this is what I came up with, piece by piece.

A Lake Of Cake.
I marbled the fondant so it looks like water! |

Almost everything is handmade by me out of fondant.
The fishing pole is a wooden skewer.
I hung thread from the fishing pole and attached a handmade fondant sinker. :)

The cat-tail plants are made out of jelly bellies :)
What fisherman wouldn't love to be able to eat jelly belly plants while on his fishing trip? |

The trees are ice cream cones frosted with buttercream leaves ♥ |
