This cake was made for my sisters step daughter. My sister helped with it. Every tier was a differnt flavor. Icing was matching flavor to each tier. The flowers were silk and royal icing drop flowers. I also used royal icing to highlite the staircases. It was very rewarding once it was finished. I babysat it to make sure the children running around the table would not make it fall. I would have cried. Thanks for looking.
