Wow!!!! Amazing job!!! Looks really pro! I'm sure it was a huge success, I hope you enjoyed the process :)

Hi, I used gumpaste for the bone because it's a fast dry, therefore easier to cut clean. You may also use fondant with Tylose or CMC, but let it rest for a little bit to allow it to harden before you cut through because it is too elastic at first.The note is also a rolled gumpaste, I used black food coloring gel with a thin brush. But you can also use edible pen, or any other preferable method, including color dust with vodka/ lemon extract. If you keep the cake in the referigirator over night before starting to carve it, you will have no problem carving it. I wouldn't recommend using brownies, it's too dense. This cake requires very minimal carving, you just place the steak pattern on the surface of a leveled cake and follow its outline with a knife. Always work on a chilled cake when...

Good luck!

Hi, I used the regular "copper" one, by Wilton, not a metallic sheen. Don't worry about the airbrush, you can achive great results by applying the colors with regular brushes. I'm not sure what do you mean by 'chocolate fondant', if you refer to brown modeling chocolate, then it would be to dark for it. You can brighten it by combining white modeling chocolate.But keep in mind that when using a modeling chocolate, you'll need to use oil based food coloring, the regular gel color are water based. Enjoy your project! Would love to see photos of your cake :)

Thanks! I try my very best :)

GREAT job!!!!! It looks like you had lots of fun!

Thank you very much! :)

Sure! Why not?
