Your focus should be the toppers of the cakes – not the sides of the tiers. (I want to get the baking & decoration of the sides done over two days – if possible) Look at the following sites for inspiration:

•  Fondant & rice crispy treat mixture

•  Several toothpicks/kebab sticks •  A cutting board (the smoother

the better) •  A sharp non-serrated knife •  paintbrush (size 3/0 to 5/0) •  Water in a small container •  A surface to build upon, a piece

styrofoam/florist oasis (covered in cling wrap)

•  Plastic Containers to store sculptures

•  A sprinkle canister containing either powdered sugar. If you do not have a sprinkle canister you can use a spoon to scatter the sugar but it won’t be as evenly distributed.

Fondant & all related equipment must be at school by Tuesday 6th August
