how did you get this to look so glossy?

Hi, amberKoroscil...I brushed over the whole cake w/ water. Can't find my steamer. LOL

hi there, would you mind messaging me a little more details on how to make this cake? did u bake top tier in a half round cake pan? how big? and how many layers on cake & how wide is bottom tier? thanks so much! and is bottom tier covered in 2layers of fondant?

Hi, FondantLava...The bottom tier is just a 9" round, single layer, covered w/ buttercream. The top tier is a 1/2 round of the "ball" pan from Wilton. The white ruffle is just on the outside of the cake and the whole cake was then covered w/ pink fondant. The top tier is covered with black fondant and I used modeling chocolate for the ears. The bow is gumpaste. Hope this helps. :)
