Ruffled Wedding Cake

20 batches of cake, 4 cont. dye, 20lbs of fondant, and quite a few hours later...
None the less was a fun cake to work on!
Was my white cake each layer of cake was cut into two and filled with raspberry goodness.

I suppose the most challenging thing for me on this cake was to get the roses and rose petals to the "perfect" color! I had dyed the gumpaste and let it sit overnight, four times! Each time at the end it was "perfect" but by the next day was a completely different hue! Hoping to get a closer picture of the flowers eventually:)
Something about being the maid-of-honor and not thinking of getting any shots of the cake.. totally dependent on others. 

Thankful I could do this for my sister and even more thankful it was what she was looking for:)
Can't promise, but I hope there are more pictures for me to share later!

Silver Lined Feathers

This is not how I first envisioned the design... sometimes it's just "falls" together - Especially when you don't have a sketch, picture, or specific detail in mind.
Was able to do this cake after everyone went to bed, my favorite time to work on cakes (even though it was 3:30a.m.)! No distractions, no one to accidentally bump you... just concentration! 
My favorite detail about this cake is the feathers! Love how they add that extra little special something you know! Also love these colors together - Purple, white, and silver - so elegant!
Hope my client likes this one as much as everyone else does...
Cake - Three tiers of vanilla with vanilla filling!
