Coolest Pig Cake 14

Pig Cake
I made this pig cake for our annual pig roast.
I used two box cakes and prepared as instructed. I baked them in a large bowl, small bowl and small loaf pan. I had to keep an eye on them as they baked and due to the different size bowls and pan, each piece was done at different times.
Once they were all cooled, I arranged them so that the large bowl was the body, the small bowl was the head and I cut up the cake in the loaf pan to make the legs and snout. I placed the cake on cardboard wrapped in aluminum foil.
I covered the cake in butter cream frosting. Then I used marshmallow fondant tinted with Wilton's icing colors on top of the butter cream and molded the fondant to the pig's body shape. It was my first time with fondant so it's not as smooth as I would have liked.
I also used the fondant for the eyes, ears and tail along with the butter cream frosting as glue.
