Gingerbread Boy Cake!

I built this cake for my work's annual holiday party last year. This design was featured in the Wilton 2007 yearbook. It is not my own design, however, just one that I replicated. It is iced in chocolate and white homemade buttercream frosting. The cute little gingerbread boys were cut from rolled fondant. I colored the fondant using cinnamon and ginger, so they taste like real gingerbread boys! Miniature candy canes, spicy gumdrops, and rainbow sprinkles add to this eye catching design.

I really like the idea of flavoring the fondant with cinnamon and ginger rather than just using brown food coloring!
