Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Cake

Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Cake on Cake Central

This was my first attempt on making my own stacked cake and my first time EVER to use fondant. I made the fondant myself using marshmallow cream, powdered sugar, and crisco (I will purchse it from now on as it was very difficult to make this smooth). Anyhoo, I iced all the layers using basic store bought icing. For the bottom layer, I drew the swirls by hand and the strawberries were cut out of fondant using a heart shaped cookie cutter and brown sprinkles for the seeds. The stripes were just stripes cut from the fondant as well. Between each layer I put a piece of fondant and draped it down the sides. I know this cake is no where near perfect but I was pround of my first attempt. Thank you to everyone on this site who inspired this cake!! It was a hit!!
