subway sub

I used 2 9x13 cakes first. I then cut away and molded the top portion of the sub "roll" with a serated knife. I frosted the bottom portion of the cake first with frosting tinted to a yellowish "roll" color, then I added green food coloring to coconut and placed that on as the lettuce. I warmed up yellow starbursts, (10-15 sec. in microwave) rolled them out and cut them to look like a slice of cheese. I also used fruit roll ups and rolled out as well to look like tomatoes. Then configure black olives (my son's favorite)out of black licorice rope. Carefully flip the top of it onto cake. frost to look like a roll, and to finish I used clear sugar for texture on top.
I asked subway for the paper to add the finishing touch.
