This was a dummy cake made for my county fair. The tiers are 6,9,12,and 14; iced in buttercream. All decos are fondant. Based on a design I found on the internet. It looks brown, but really it started out as a deep, dark (Barny) purple. When I saw how brown it looked I went w/pink as the accent color. I ended up putting a topper on it - just a lg oval w/smaller circles around the base to hide the stick used to hold it up. All shapes cut with tips and cutters. I got a blue ribbon for it. Our fair limits the size you can enter and everyone else made mini cakes. This was the only 'full size' cake entered.
