Need some opinions about a cake...

I'm making a cake tonight that has to be transported 150 miles. The cake can't be too extravagant because of this and the fact that I have to assemble it onsite. The cake is poker themed and it will be green, black, white and red with large diamonds, spades, clubs and hearts. I've already made some of the decorations for it, but the cards and chips are so time consuming that I'm considering just buying plastic chips and real cards. It's for my mom's husband's 80th birthday, so it's not a paying job, but I'd like it to be nice for him. Would you be put off with real cards and chips being on your cake or should I continue to make edible ones?

  • I think the real stuff is fine and will probably look cool. God forbid you spend all that time making those things and it accidentally slides around on the way or melts or something.

  • I 'd would go with the real cards and chips. Can we see a picture when it is done?
  • go for the real ones

    Is there a way to get a local bakery to print some out on the edible paper stuff that you can just slap on fondant or molding chocolate?  Yeah, yeah, odd one out but I watch a lot of Ace of Cakes and stuff so don't mind me.
