WEDDING CAKE (SPONGE, COVERED IN ROYAL ICING)

Hullo all - I have been asked to recreate a similar looking cake for a bride who will be getting married some 130km from home on a game ranch that has quite a rough road. I am unable to deliver and set up the cake, but thought that I could perhaps get the same messy look by covering the sponge cakes in fondant and then doing the messy looking technique on top of it with royal icing, that way I can be sure that she can safely set each tier on top of the next at the venue without worrying about the buttercream being messed up. Does anybody have a better idea? I am sending a picture of the cake - all suggestions from the professionals welcomed :-)

Thanku Jeri - so glad you have also checked out David Cakes - I bought one of his DVD's online but sadly it wasnt really as much of a tutorial as I had hoped it would be - but fun to watch and of course if you love this wonderful craft, it is great to see all different types of work so that you can hopefully pluck from them all when the time is right :-)
