Thank you very much. First i cut the cake 3 layers filled with cream and let it chill, then i crumb coat it, let it chill and believe it or not i did smooth the icing by hands(no tools just fingers) the spatula drove me crazy.Putting the fondant on was the best i almost pulled my hair out, i even came to this site see if i can get some help because it doesn't spring back i was stuck with exess fondant that's where the half circles at the bottom came in handy.I used wilton decorating stamps for the scrolls
Sorry, i forgot that part .After filling with the cream and chilling it, i started carving very slowly ,a thin slice at a time, making sure not to over carve. May i suggest marshmellow fondant for this type of cake "silouette cake" because MMF springs back. That's what i 'll use next time.
When i was applying the fondant i got to a part where i had too much exess, the fondant was streched to the max and it had too much surface area.When a curtain draps and creats those folds that's what i ended up with at the lower part of each tier, if the fondant did spring back , by going back to its original size it would've been better. I m sorry i m soo bad with explaining.
Thank you very much for everyone's kind words. I used a 6" and 3" but i doubled the recipe, the cream filling is what made the cake very high 5".Thank's to everyone here I progress with every post I read.
