I know I’m a little late on this but I have done a Max and Ruby cake in the past. For the figures I just cut them out of fondant and piped them with royal icing. It’s an easy way around it if you don’t have much sculpting experience like me and it still looks really great on the cake :) -- Nikki, So Cal, www.Facebook.com/nikkibelleperchecakes |

I struggled with the faces too. I ended up making an heart shaped head with the ears attached and then a round nose/muzzle. I worked with homemade marshmallow fondant, and will post a picture as soon as able. -- Erin, Pennsylvania, http://doublyblessedbakery.blogspot.com |

Awesome! I love all the details! I know you said the bunnies were gumpaste, was everything else? I love making checkerboard cakes! I’ve made my share of those. My max and ruby cake was golden vanilla rainbow. -- Erin, Pennsylvania, http://doublyblessedbakery.blogspot.com |

Thank you – all the little details were also gumpaste – The picture doesn’t show it well, but in person it was really cute. You also did a very nice job – your bunnies are great!! -- DJ - Funfetticakes |
