First, hello and welcome.

Second. What will be the presentation of your edible sculpture? Is it an assignment in a culinary school, a catering presentation, just something fun for the family, etc.?
Also, what is your area of training, meaning, with what do you feel most comfortable?

Bread, cake, candy, and chocolate all come to mind immediately. As do large, firm vegetables.

Are you comfortable baking or candy making? I ask because not everyone is comfortable as a patissier.
