Stars And Stripes

I'm please with the overall look of this cake, but am disappointed in my fondant. If anyone read my rant in the forums about my fondant frustrations, this was the cake I was talking about. The top tier is covered in red Satin Ice. The bottom is blue buttercream Fondarific. I struggled with both of them. The Satin Ice looked like elephant skin and kept ripping while the Fondarific was way too thick (despite my attempts to thin it), got too cold and puckered really bad. The customer is a friend of mine and got a screaming deal, so I don't think she minded. Oh well.
