Peter's Cake

Peter's Cake. Just the way he "ordered" it: 
1) a lemon cake that
2) looks like a "stump" 
3) that's NOT frosted
4) with a 3 foot long gummy snake coiled on top! 

...I think that he liked it!    This was the first "fun/crazy" cake I've baked or helped bake in a LONG time- I really enjoyed the challenge.  I'd seen these and other gummy snakes EVERYWHERE, until I went to buy one. Then I could hardly find one.  (Visit HERE for a better photo of the cake, and for the details about the cake!)

~some of the components~

Lemon Curd "crumb coat"  (worked well!).

~making the marzipan mushrooms~

 Peter, Hannah & Jonathan came to the party- I sent them home with leftover cake.  =)
