A Bigfoot Cake for my Main Squatch

That's right, my hubby just turned 40!  He was super blah about this birthday, so I threw him a party. Once the invitation was out, I started brainstorming cakes.  While trying to research bigfoot (and I say trying because there's not a whole lot of bigfoot party supplies), the only cakes I would come across were foot cakes.  And then it hit me - picture cake!  I found a few places to order the picture sheet from and a friend of mine did a nice little photoshop job for me.  Once I ordered the sheet, I got really excited!



My mom just so happened to be going to Door County for the weekend so I asked her to bring me some chocolate rocks.  I then decided chocolate footprints were necessary.  I ordered a footprint candy mold (probably for baby showers, but whatever) and put them all around the cake.  






And finally....trees.  They had to be edible.  They had to be cool.  Sugar cones, dipped in chocolate, rolled in green rice krispies - YES!







Of coarse you can't just have a bigfoot cake.
