Sitting on a 12" cake base, took a 10" cake board and rolled it with my rolling pin. Covered board with a thin coating of buttercream and folded fondant over board. Carved the top hat to an oval shape - layers of WASC cake with oreo buttercream filling and traditional buttercream coated. Marilyn is made from Satin Ice of which I will never do again, because of humid climate, she sank, and looks fat! : ) Used tiny silver dragees for "diamonds". Thank you so much for looking!
