This was made for a 35th anniversary. The daughter of the couple ordered the cake and requested all of thier family pets as well as her and her siblings be on the cake. I was given a photo of all the creatures and the kids dress as they are. I created all the figures from gumpaste and painted all the animals. The top had a gumpaste "35", but it wasnt dry for the photo. Trim on each tier was made to look like dog colors.
