A cake for my nephew's birthday. The green stuff around the bottom was me playing around with sugar. It's just 1 1/4 c sugar, 2/3 c water and a few drops of food coloring heated to hard crack stage and poured over a tray full of ice cubes. It hits the ice and freezes in funny shapes. Really easy and works great for swamp weeds, lava, coral etc depending on which colors you use. Yoda's head, hands, and legs are rice crispy treat, the rest is cake. He's covered in marshmallow fondant that I shaped with toothpicks and a few other tools. Didn't take as long as I thought it would and I must say, I'm pretty proud of the little guy.
