Bridal Cake For State Fair 2009

My first "wedding cake". Styrofoam dummies decorated for the 2009 Kentucky State Fair. This is my first competition, but I mainly did it for the challenge and experience. I underestimated how long it would take for me to do this cake ... and with my hectic schedule I had to scale my plans for his WAY back ... but I am happy with the finished product. All I can say is that I learn A LOT from this cake ... and I got it done (in the wee hours of the morning that it was due)! The cake is covered in ivory -colored marshamallow fondant and decorated with sage satin ribbon and handcrafted gum paste flowers (roses, sweet peas and daisies). The styrofoam rounds were 4" tall and 6", 8", 10" in diameter. Thanks for looking! And thank you to my fellow CCers for advice on how to cover the dummies!
