Bramly Cottage Birthday Cake

This is a cake I made for my daughter's 7th birthday. I started with a Norwegian sponge, has 12 eggs in each cake, but tastes good and doesn't sag! Sponged together with strawberry jam and butter cream.
Shaped the whole cake to look like a tree stump.
Covered the whole cake with ready to roll out royal icing.
Then got to work making branches, mice, leaves, apples and so on. I used food colouring for the painting.
The mice I hand painted  before they went on. The tree stump and the leaves I painted together.
This cake took me three days in total to make and decorate, the look on my Laura's face....wow, she loved it! Tasted good too.
