Handy Manny Cake

Here's a cake for a one-year-old who LOVES Handy Manny. For reference, her mom let me borrow the toy toolbox and tools. All the characters were made from fondant + Gumtex, but they were still soft (which means lots of skewers for support). I actually made the bottom parts of the figures, but didn't take any photos before putting them into the cake. The cake itself is vanilla with vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream filling, then covered with dark chocolate ganache before layering on black cherry marshmallow fondant. The box is a little high (3 layers cake + 2 layers icing) because I wanted to use up all the cake.
