My daughter designed this for her reception. Covered with Chocopan fondant. Copper and gold dust (use Everclear to attach dusting powder) on fondant bands. Green is real ribbon. Leaf pattern presses used (hard to see in photo). Cakes are actually ovals, but could be made with rounds. We put large dowel rods up the tall columns to give the appearance that the pillars rest on the bottom tier. Silk leaves around the bottom with the pillar candles.
