My lovely Cousin has an equally lovely husband who turned 50 recently.  As we had to transport the cake from Dublin to Birmingham, England I was wary of making the original cake we had planned – an Oscar.  He got this, a clapper board, instead.  
The cake was double iced in fondant for that ultra smooth look and the ‘reel’ is made from gumpaste.  
 
Also, I have to be completely honest.  My lovely husbad, who has been watching me make cakes for two years made this cake from scratch.  I was up to my eyes and ears with orders so he took over  For a first time cake maker I think he did well.  Very well.
