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.
