Turcake!

This is a fondant Thanksgiving cake sculpted and designed to look like a turkey fresh out of the oven, fixed with all the trimmings! The entire cake is chocolate with alternating buttercream fillings of chocolate and vanilla. YUMM-O! The cake was hand painted using gel food coloring mixed with vodka and I tried my best to replicate the skin of the turkey! All the little elements were made using gumpaste and the giant turkey legs were made using Rice Krispy Treats! Can you believe I had never made Rice Krispy Treats before in my life?! I couldn't believe how easy it was to sculpt the legs! :) Hope you all like it! :)
