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

OH.....AND FYI.....your roses are lovely...you are way too critical and you have amazing talent. I haven't' really done the array of styles of cakes you, do, and hoping I can and will improve. Until my neice's wedding 4 yrs ago, I hadn't made a wedding cake, ot anything near that. Last cakes I did were when I took lessons when my Chris was 6, and now he is 27.

But June, the roses are the ones that are gum paste, and they don't look so hot. I guess the little ones in the basket are too, but they don't count. I like the royal icing ones in the basket. I will say, though, that the roses that I have been working on all week long for my God Daughter's wedding cake look a whole lot better, and I think it has to do with changing my gum paste to a different brand. Tomorrow is the big day I start those frills. I hope I have allotted myself enough time for three tiers worth. Did you make any of the MMF?
