Chicago Cubs baseball jersey birthday cake. I carved the t shirt from a half sheet cake and then used buttercream frosting to cover it. The Cubs logo, letters and numbers were all cut from moldable buttercream, which works much like fondant. The pros of moldable buttercream are that it is easy to work with and tastes much better than fondant. It works well for flat or cut out decorations. It can be used for molding figures but I don't think it would hold up and be as durable as fondant in that situation. I haven't tried covering a cake with it, but that may be something to try someday. Get the recipe for moldable buttercream here
