Sweets: Gollum Cake

Gollum Cake by Karin Klenner of Sweet Little Treat

This Lord of the Rings Cake is approximately 30 centimeters high and took 1.5 kilograms of fondant and 1 kilogram of modeling chocolate to make. Gollum’s single strands of hair were made out of sugar. Gollum took about thirty hours to complete. The core of Gollum is fondant. The outer layers are modeling chocolate. The eyes were painted with petal dust. The name plaque was made using fondant and rice paper and painted using edible gold and black paints.

Honestly, the whole thing may be too realistic if you ask me.  I mean, who wants a taste of that mug?
