Purse Cake

This was a 4 layer chocolate cake with a chocolate mouse filling. I baked a 10" and an 8" square, cut them in half and stacked (largest to smallest) and filled them. I stuck it in the freezer while I made the buttercream. Then I carved and trimmed the sides to get an angled purse like shape. I covered it in pink buttercream. My diamond mat melted, so I piped on the diagonal lines.(Steady hands..) I made a black fondant flap for the top and a black rope for the bottom and sides. I used white fondant and silver pearl dust to make the handle and all the little dots, also the monogram. Then came the part I was most proud of, the piping. In my best handwriting yet, I piped the birthday greeting with white buttercream.
