Alice In Wonderland Cheshire Cat Wedding Cake

This was SO much easier to do in buttercream! I'll never go back to struggling to cover these tiers in fondant!! Did the wild colours with Americolor dyes, fondant detailing. Cheshire cat in gumpaste. Pearls in fondant dusted with irridescent powder. Cake is Pistachio with Passionfruit buttercream, Dark Chocolate with Grand Marnier buttercream & Banana with Coconut buttercream.

Great cake. It's so smooth, it really looks like fondant!

Freeze it for 2-3 hours before transporting it. When you assemble (I only do assembly on-site), slides together like a dream!
