Farewell cake for co-worker

Okay, so this is the first cake I made in September 2010. I was preparing for my sons birthday in November, where I wanted to do a fondant cake.. So I trekked down to Walmart and picked up some Wilton ready made fondant. Baked up a white cake, made some caramel icing and dyed my fingers green.. It took me about 3 hours and this was the end result.

It was such a great learning experience for me, and I thought it was pretty enough to take to work.

Things I learned from this cake:
1. Wilton fondant is like leather.. the box claimed a mellow taste.. I claim unflavored taffy.
2. Fondant and water do not mix.
