On a large sheet cake, you could do triangle shapes in colored fondant:

or add background stripes to suggest a tent.

Lighted Ferris wheel at night could be done with neon braiding plastic or neon cake icing tubes on a background of dark blue frosting. Just do part of the circle instead of the whole circle to make it more interesting.

Cone hats and netting in bright colors. You could buy circles of neon netting used to make bridal favors, bunch them up, and use them right on the frosting.

Someone juggling, game where you throw darts at balloons, tilt a whirl ride or any other favorite ride.

Answer 4

I know you said you didn't like ferris wheels but you could do a jewish star and the tips of the star could have the ppl on the ferris wheel in those little cart things. You could do a clown or party hat? Or the cake doesn't have to do with the theme, just make it something fun

Answer 6

you could do like a 2 or 3 tier cake but instead of the regular circle, put 3 teacup thingies on top of a regular cakeand one in the middle going up, so its actually a 3 tier: the base, the 3 teacups and the one teacup sticking up
