It's a Bird.. no it's a plane!

I was asked to make a replica of a piper cub airplane for a 90th birthday. So I decided to take some pictures as I went through the process so you guys could see what it looks like :)

First I had to make a base for the cake. So we cut the shape of the plane 25inches long and 8 inches at the widest part.

Then I put on 6 cakes each were a 9x13, cut and shaped them to fit the base

when I was finished I covered the cake with Fondant, and airbrushed it to match the original plane.
