Just finished this dummy cake and headed to enter it into the local fair. Got the inspiration from a few cakes here on cc. Styrofoam rounds covered in fondant. Damask was done in RI from a stencil I cut with my Cricut Cake. Roses are handmade using a fondant/gumpaste mix. TFL!

this is a beautiful cake, but isn't it a lot easier to do this with styrofoam than with real cake? it seems like it would be. I'm just starting out and haven't used styrofoam

Thank you all for such nice comments! The stencil was fairly easy. I actually held in on the cake with pins (since it was foam). This was my first attempt at stenciling so I would do a section, then let it dry, repeat..

beautiful!!! what size are the tiers?

newmansmom2004 8/30/10 at 6:18pm

It's beautiful! Good luck and let us know how you do!

This is absolutely stunning...can I ask what is under your second tier...it appears to sit up higher (not directly on the bottom tier? It's a great idea because the flowers don't hide any of that tier!

I know you said something about cricut, but how does that work? how did you make such a detailed stencil? I have never used stencil, but I just HAVE to now!!! This is my most favorite cake that I have yet seen!
