Here is my contribution to The Sugar Pirates collaboration which won Best Group at Cake International this year.

I was inspired by the Pirates of the Caribbean films and wanted to create my own caribbean pirate. She is a ghostly figure who seems to appear when sailors get close to her lost treasure coins.

I made use of Sugar Clay mixed with Renshaw fondant to create her face. Isomalt was used for her eye and coral pieces and finally pastillage for the sea shells and coins. Bended golden brown sugar was used for the edible sand.
