My Mum's Mehndi Cake

My sister and I made this cake for my mum's birthday. My sister made the bottom (devil's food cake with chocolate filling) and I made the top (lemon cake with lemon curd filling). Sadly my sister didn't have a cake board for the bottom layer, so she had to improvise. Also, we had wanted to use real marigolds to decorate the top and sides, but when we went out to buy some none were available, so we had to substitute artificial flowers at the last minute. My sister made the fondant (marshmallow) and I did the royal icing mehndi design. Um, yeah, I still need practice working with the stuff, but it was fun!
