Summer Invasion!

This is a fruit punch flavored 3 tier cake with a tangy lime buttercream made especially for all the children at my BIG family reunion. Kids love bugs! So- Royal Icing monarchs,white chocolate fondant coneflowers, cattails, lady-bugs, caterpillars, grass and rocks. Colored sugar( for dirt/sand) The only thing not edible is the dowels on the cone flowers and the cattails. I painted the blue on the cake, and the red and orange lady bugs, as well as the coneflowers with different flavored extracts and wilton color. People were taking pieces and snitching little bites as they walked by. That's one thing I like about heavily decorated cakes!
