Thank you so much to KittisKakes not only for the design, but also for her help!! Two 11x15" cakes, side by side. This cake took foreverI I had tons of trouble with the letting--cut the larger letters out of fondant w/ a paring knife but couldn't get nice straight lines and was unhappy w/ how they looked. The rest of the letters were cut out using alphabet cutters from a Wilton set. Photo was printed from the internet, laminated and cut out.
Looks perfect to me ~ beautiful cake!
I think it came out great!!! Your letters look good too!! Maybe a suggestion, and I'll probably do this also, cut large letters out a couple of days in advance and then let them harden a little. That may help keep them straight. I'll definitely try that next time! Your borders look great too!! Nice job!!!!
Yes, KittisKakes, that's a great suggestion. I cut my letters out minutes before putting them on the cake and they were really flimsey and hard to move around. One thing I did that ended up being helpful was I did the whole red curtain area the night before I put the letters on so that whole background was nice and "crusted". This allowing me to move letters without smudging the icing.
Very nicely done! Looks terrific!
Michele25, How funny I did a cake like this the only thing I did a 1/2 sheet which it work much better for me. and I also did the laminate, Like your very nice. :D

What tips did you use to get the effect in the curtain and the floor?

Hi, thank you for your comments! I used the smooth side of the "basketweave" tip #47 for the floor and curtains.
