SCULPTURED PIG CAKE

CAKES ARE:
Four 11 x 15-inch sheet cakes stacked with divider between two
One doll pan cake
One 7-inch round layer
“Apple” - one petite doll pan cake
Several royal icing daisies, tip 101
Cake board covered with plastic table cloth then plastic wrap over it.
Pigs ears - flattened marshmallows
Tail is stiffened buttercream icing

SETUP:
BODY: Stack two 11 x 15-inch sheet cakes with icing between. Place straws for support of the two other sheet cakes. Place the top two 11 x 15-inch sheet cakes on a foil-covered cardboard. Place a sheet of plastic wrap over the bottom cakes that have the straws inserted. Set in place the top cakes.
NECK: Place the 7-inch cake on its side against the sheet cakes with icing between.
HEAD: Place the Wonder mold cake on-side against the 7-inch cake with icing between.

Carve the cake into a pig shape as best you can. (Icing will add to the shape also).
Ice the cake thickly and rough. Add icing a little thicker for the shoulders. (Smoothing comes next).  Let the icing crust for about 10 minutes. Using a smooth paper towel, dress interfacing or a Kleenex tissue, smooth the icing and form ‘wrinkles’ in the pig’s skin.

Airbrush brown, yellow and black so that the pig looks nice and roasted.

APPLE: Ice the apple red, then with red piping gel and set in place. A green stem would be nice.
