This cake is basically a five tier wedding cake that is iced over the sides to hide the separator plates. The bottom layer is a 12", the next is a 10" with the top edge carved in, then two 8" layers then the wonder mold. The planets are all half ball pans and are chocolate cake. The "SAM" on the ship stands for "St. Angela Merici" and it was for space camp night for all the 2nd graders and their parents.
