Everything on this cake was made from butter cream icing except for the dark leaves and the pearls, which were made from fondant. It was one of my experimental cakes attempting to do some Lambeth techniques using butter cream.

Sorry, Gail, I was pretty busy yesterday and didn't get on the computer much...just to check on mail and what-not and off running errands. First off, thank you for your first comment. You are such an encourager! Secondly, the icing is the one that I usually use for butter cream.
My Butter Cream icing
About 10 ounces of Crisco,
a stick (or two depending on the weather) of real butter,
3 pounds of powdered sugar, usually the one from Sam's,
a good healthy tbsp. of real vanilla,
about 3 tbsp. meringue powder (I prefer Wilton brand for that),
1 tsp. salt, and
2/3 or 3/4 cup water, depending on how stiff it is.
? Linda what recipe did you use for your buttercream? ; ) please : )) !
