I racked my brain trying to decide what I was going to do for my sons first communion cake. I wanted it to be something really special. After making a communion cake for my friend (see my earlier post in November 2011), I wanted to do something in 3D. So I came up with a simple design comprising of a fondant covered mud cake, with the three main communion symbols....... the bread, the wine (ie, grapes) and the communion wafers. The bread is just a large piece of fondant icing coloured and shaped to look like a loaf of bread. The grapes are small fondant balls. The chalice is actually a ceramic egg cup that is covered with fondant icing and painted with gold edible paint. The communion wafers are fondant icing cut with a small cutter and imprinted with a cross. I was really really happy with how it turned out.
