That's a very generous AND ambitious endeavor! Props to you! I love to decorate cakes myself and I can tell you that it is worth the time and money to take a cake decorating class at Hobby Lobby or Michaels!. Call them and ask about available classes!. I also DO NOT recommend using Wilton brand fondant!. It tastes AWFUL; I would much rather make my own marshmallow fondant or purchase Pettinice brand of fondant!. You can check out a library or bookstore for books full of useful info on how to properly stack cakes so they don't collapse on themselves, decorating ideas, and other trade secrets!. The craft stores usually sell cake decorating instruction books to help as well!. As for the accessories like umbrellas, I would recommend you use gum paste (aka sugar paste) and sculpt them to your liking!. You will have to purchase a fondant tool kit!. I am a member of this cake decorating website, and I think it does wonders for anyone who want to learn more about it!. there's even a forum to ask and help other cake decorators find solutions and advice!. http://www!.cakecentral!.com/ It is free to join! I also have favorites these demonstration vids that will very helpful!. http://www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=3qu9ZtV51!.!.!.
