army tank

This cake  was for a young boy's birthday. It's chocolate cake, buttercream icing, and homemade fondant. I painted the camo detailing. The size of the tank is roughly 6x8x4. All edible except the dowel rod used to support the cannon. It's hard to tell from the pictures, but the tank is on an incline of even more cake, just to give it a little more interest and not waste the larger scraps from carving.

 They also wanted a cake to eat on the actual birthday, so I made a coordinating 6 inch tier.
