Emblem on boots
Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Unisex

Style: Military


Materials

This was made for my daughter's going to bootcamp party.

What was your inspiration?

...I just wanted to give her a fun cake. We've seen alot of the cakes with the edible printed emblem and ones with the dress blues... so I wanted to give her something original!!

What are you most proud of?

I like the boots... I did them with no pattern and had never done any shoe before. Although I know they could be much neater - people didn't know it was cake and wondered by I had boots on the table.. lol

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

...have a pattern for the boots! Like I said, I did these buy just throwing fondant on (etc) - and wish that I would have taken the time to make a pattern to make them better.

..the bag, I believe would have looked much neater in fondant, but alot of my family is not a fan of fondant - so I attempted a denim look with just icing... So although it's not perfect - it was perfect for us! :)
