Mother's Day Leopard Print Purse Cake — Clothing / Shoe / Purse

In: Mother's Day Leopard Print Purse Cake in album: Clothing / Shoe / Purse

My 1st purse cake, gum paste shoe and lipstick. I LOVE Leopard print. Also, there is leopard print on top, the bottom & inside too! Took me 16 hrs to make, but I had fun and I learned through trial and error. My luster dust painting isn't up to par and it didn't come out as a deep gold (which I was looking for).

Wow, I can't believe you don't have any comments on this cake, it's great. You certainly picked an ambitious design for your first purse, and those shoes are just adorable. Would you please share how in the world to managed to get the leopard pattern inside the baked cake?!? 8O Very, very cool cake :D >

Thank you iamcakin~ I got the leopard pattern inside of these by adding cocoa powder to a small portion of the cake batter and from that small portion, I tinted the dark brown with black gel colors. So, I had 3 shades of cake batter: Yellow, brown & black. I then made random "spots" at the bottom to the cake and on top of/between the yellow cake. Does that make sense? If not, let me know.

Next time I'm going to make smaller random spot b/c they get bigger as the cake bakes.
