This is one of my favorites I have made so far. Made for my coworkers sweet little boy for his birthday. I loved how everything turned out. Was easier than I thought.
First, the board was covered with duct tape...YES, DUCT TAPE! They carry camo kind at Wal-Mart.
I made chocolate cake first, standard rectangle pan.
Took cardboard and cut out my template.
Place cake on wax paper and put template over it and cut out. I did layer spare pieces of cake to build up some areas.
Make MMF (I used chocolate marshmallows since they're already brown). Added in some brown Wiltons gel coloring for base color and blend completely. Next I added some more brown but NOT blending in completely, gives that wood look.
Made Rice Krispies, molded a barrel. Let harden in fridge. I already had made molding chocolate at this point. (Dyed black when mixed.) Covered RK in the molding chocolate. Attached to cake with icing. Molded the pin, trigger, and scope with the rest.
This face is the reason I do this...he was so happy!!
