To start off with I printed off pictures of each of the characters so I could try and get all the detail in to them. As I knew he loved Woody I had to make sure it was spot on - he may only be 2 but I'm sure he noticed. With having a bit of experience making models I knew it would take a bit of time getting it all right so I made them a week in advance. In the end they were not easy but not quite as challenging as I first thought. They were made out of a fondant and sugar paste mix so it would keep the shape but also be edible.
The sponge was chocolate Madeira cake with a chocolate butter cream and the fondant was baby blue with a royal blue edging. I got to use one of my new cake tools to create a perfect cut.
The cake board was covered in teddy bear brown fondant and made to look like wooden flooring.
