Hi Adele,
The circus cake was really easy to make. Of course you may not need 7 layers of cake. You could try a round with less layers. I covered the cake with a marshmellow fondant which is super easy to work with (let me know if you need receipe). And just hand painted the stripes with red food coloring. Altho you could also make red fondant and cut out strips. I made little flags on toothpicks out of fondant that I let sit out overnight to dry. You could also use gum paste. The pictures I have up are of my practice cake. On the day of the carnival party I added some little plastic circus animals that I had sitting around the front. Hope that helps :-)
