This is my first "real" cake, made for a 50th Wedding Anniversary, a Tuscan theme. I am pretty happy with it aside from some much needed practice on the scroll work! It is all done in butter cream and the flowers are silk. The scrolls were painted with gold dust and vanilla, can't really see it in the picture. The layers are: choc. with raspberry, WASC with raspberry and choc. buttermilk with fudge. THANK YOU to all my new CC friends that helped a rookie like me make a fashionable yet edible cake!
