After quite a bit of fun and frustration, I now present the orchid cake I made for one of my dearest friends. I was surprised that the leaves were the hardest part! As always I'll be doing things slightly differently next time but was really pleased with my first attempt at something like this! Flowers are fun once you get the hang of it! Vanilla cake (started with 9" and then carved), red currant filling, IMBC, fondant and Oreos (for dirt). TFL!
