This cake was my contribution to the 50 Years of Willy Wonka Cake Collaboration. My piece celebrates the whimsy of the Oompa Loompas! The cake is 2.5 feet tall and 2 feet wide. The mushroom and both Oompas are make of carved Rice Krispies Treats that were then covered with ganache and fondant. Everything is edible. The “5” is a candy cane I heated up and bent. The Wonka Bar is chocolate with a fondant and wafer paper wrapper. The beaded necklace is made of fondant beads made shiney with corn syrup and vodka (thanks to Leslie at Royal Bakery for sharing this trick!). The Everlasting Gobstopper is fondant and royal icing. The gummy bear is just a giant gummy bear. It was such an honor to be a part of this remarkable group! You can see more pieces from this collaboration at: www.facebook.com/willywonkacakecollab
