This is a birthday cake. The board is covered with fondant to look like a wood floor.
All items decorating this cake are edible! the entire cowboy hat is made from gumpaste, shading with the airgun is what really made this hat look real. Small copper sprayed buttons around the band were added after the hat dried. The belt and the rope are fondant and the buckle is gumpaste. I tried to get the 6" to look like denim and the 10" to seem like leather. I used clipart to cutout the cowboy boots that decorated the lower cake! This was a fun cake and was enjoyed by the Colorado Cowboy himself! (White cake with whiped strawberry filling)
