Garden theme birthday cake, different angle
Bottom cake is two flavors, half red velvet with cheese cake flavored butter cream and almond sour cream with almond flavored butter cream, then covered in fondant. Top basket weave cake is lemon sour cream pound soaked in raspberry syrup and covered in butter cream basket weave flavored with creme bouquet. My gum paste handle broke as I was pushing it into the cake, so I had to disguise the break with a pink bow. I just didn't have time to make one from gum paste. The gloves, seed packets, garden tool, flower pot, tulip bulbs, birthday card and envelope, along with a box of Miracle-Gro all made from fondant. Miracle-Gro box was RKT covered in fondant and then cut-out gum paste lettering and decorations added. Roses are gum paste as are the leaves and small flowers and butterfly. Lilies are made from royal icing. Dirt is ground up Oreo cookies without the icing. Fed well over 125 people. Thanks for looking. I did post another angle showing the other side of the cake under garden theme

The lady I made it for kept all of the stuff and placed it behind glass like a shadow box. I teased her about this summer coming when the ants discover it. She will have a trail of ants visiting her shadow box. lol Thank you Elizabeth!

Thank you Deborah, Those were made with royal icing and I was pleased at how they turned out. I wish the lighting was not so strong because it really washed out the colors. They were so much more vivid than what they show in the picture.
