Put Some Glitter on It

Okay so I didn’t make this (except for the lily pads) but I had to share it.  My coworker did this for a koi competition.  It was supposed to be some koi and blue buttercream but he was all fuck that and made this instead.  The “water” is apricot glaze and the rocks underneath are rolled buttercream.  The outer rocks are fondant and the border is chocolate.  The koi are made of gumpaste and he painted them all differently to give some variety.  The only small problem was the glaze eroded the fondant and turned gumpaste into liquid eventually.  He’s AMAZING.
