Brushed embroidered wedding cake

Taupe coloured icing (looks a little grey in this pic). Then some open rose brush embroidery... and small piped dots on the top tier. And a large sugar peony... The centre of that isn't quite correct. :)

I think yours is the prettiest brushed embroidery I've seen. Very pretty cake!

Love it! If I may ask, how do you get the taupe color?

Oh thanks everyone! There's definitely better brush embroidery out there though. This was only my second time doing it. To get the taupe colour, I simply mixed a bit of chocolate fondant with white fondant and added a TOUCH of yellow. It looks slightly different under different lights. If you wanted a more greyish brown, than don't add the yellow
