I'm a home enthusiast and want to try to make a cake plate that looks similar to a giant margarita glass...sort of

So, if I use poured sugar,...I can create a base (just pour a circle of clear sugar in a lightly oiled cake ring (10-12") on a silpat.Pour a 3"x7" hollow tube (HOW?)Create another base (see step 1)Create a rim (psuedo sides of the glass) (HOW?)How deep/thick should the poured sugar be
My thoughts for the "rim" I could use two cake rings (10" and 9" so the result would be a 1/2" thick ring) but I would want it to come up about 3" high...so is that feasible

I've read where you can create a 3"x20"x1/2" rectangle of poured sugar using playdough (or culinary playdough) and when it's cooled somewhat, shape it into a circle and 'weld' the edges together
How long do you let it cool...how do you know when you can shape it without breaking it, or without losing it to a landslide?Yep, just want it clear..
If all else fails, I can use plastic platters and a couple of plastic bowls glued together, but I would still want the 3"x1/2" "rim" for the top of the cake pedestal

Thanks!!!!!!!!


If I can't get the whole thing out of sugar I would like to at least get the top piece in sugar.
