African Wedding Cake

This cake was made twice, almost 3 months apart. The American ceremony held 1st, had only the middle tier as real cake. The others are on cake forms. The Africian Wedding ceremony, held later, had the bottom large tier. The rest were on cake forms. All flowers she picked out and were silk. Each cake layer was of homemade white vanilla pound cake with my special homemade frosting. It featured icing boughs with pearl tear-drops strands.
