This picnic table cake laden with all our cook-out favorites was designed by Christina. It is the perfect cake for any picnic, cook-out, or July 4th celebrations.

The picnic table is a half sheet cake and everything is edible - either cake, rice krispy treats, or gumpaste. Christina used an airbrush [purchased at our class with Bronwen] to airbrush the food and condiments.

The tablecloth is made from a rectangular piece of fondant, that Christina taped every other 1" with painters tape vertically; airbrushed, pulled the tape off, and then did the same thing horizontally and viola! a checkered tablecloth. It was actually a lot easier than Christina thought it would be.

Hi Jennifer!

Thanks for stopping by. You may want to consider forming a cake club with Meetup.com like we did in 2006. In 4 short years we have attracted such a fun,talented bunch of folks. Google Meetup.com for more information, and you may just find a cake decorating group in your area or country--Meetup.com is all over the world.

Good Luck!
