Dead Chuffed With This One! (Excuse Blatant Blowing of One's Own Trumpet!...)
No VG, the cake is doomed to be eaten! It would be a shame to waste all the brandy that I sloshed onto the bottom fruit layer and the top is my Seriously Chocolate Sponge with vanilla butter cream filling. However - the Bull on the top (named "Docker") is removable and if he's kept dry should last indefinitely...
When's the party CT? Would they notice an extra guest
Absolutely incredible Creemteez - that's a work of pure art. The birthday 'boy' is going to be blown away by it - I'd be in tears (good ones I mean!) if someone made something like that for me.
Just taken another look at the photos.....so much small detail! Just out of curiosity, how many hours did it take to make? And the backround with the hills and sky..did you roll different colours of icing together or are the hills painted on?
The hills in the background are air-brushed with food "paint", WPG. The trees are part sculpted and part hand painted and all in all the whole thing probably took about twelve hours to complete. It was a fun project.

He should be called "Dozer"...............

Excellent rendition of a Limousin, (or is it one of those Devon/Sussex specials?) CT. Have you thought about a career in bespoke clay models?
He is a Limousin Bull, Marchogaeth! Ten out of ten for observation! Funny you should say about clay models. Am seriously considering it. The only problem is firing them. Kilns are quite expensive.....

Actually, I was 100% sure it was a Lim I just put the others in in case you weren't as good as you obviously are!
Would you have to buy a kiln? Maybe you could rent space in someone else's. I know they are expensive to run so people might be glad to share. Whatever, it is excellent positively animatabull never mind eatabull.

PS. I just don't have enough time to say hello to everyone as they join so please take this as a delighted to see you here!
First time I looked, was on my iPad, which is a Mini/ I've just had to have another look, but this time on my Laptop screen which is four times bigger. Have to say it is even better than I thought it was the first time!
Beautiful beautiful work. Make sure you get lots of pictures for everyone - it really will be such a shame to eat it!
