OCTOPUS CAKE

My donated cake for tonights crabfeed fundraiser dessert auction. It is an annual event for our Rainbow Community Center. The Octopus base is a cake dummy with copper tubing for Tentacles covered in white modeling chocolate. Topper seahorses are Isomalt as well as the seagrass, on a glass dome. The two cake tiers are fondant brushed with pastel petal dusts. The board on top of the cake dummy is just for support until I take it apart for delivery.

Thanks everyone. Sandra I was channeling Man About Cake and tried his method but could not get the copper tubing to be exactly level on each tentacle and it threw off the top cakes. So I gave up and did it this way instead.
