Antiqued White Cake with Vase of Flowers & Monogram

We started this cake 2 weeks ago! Based on a Colette Peters cake. (Bride brought us the photo.) My partner Ana created the unbelievable pastillage vase with the flowers on top. It was about 7" in height and 1/4 the cost of the finished cake! I used the couples' monogram of the letter "B" to make a central plaque in gumpaste and small snowflakes around the base tier. Edible sugar pearls, fondant pearls and irridescent "Snowflake" powder galore! Cake was 4 huge tiers, each 6" height

Wow! Thanks for all the lovely comments everyone. Gma1956, I use both 2" and 3" pans torted into 3 or 4 layers OR I bake lots of large sheets of cake and cut rounds or squares by hand.
