Tiffany & Co. Style Gift Box

I know, I know these Tiffany cakes seemed to be overdone on Cake Central, but not in my world and the Birthday Girl is raving to eveyone as I write this blurb. This is my 3rd fondant practice cake. It is my Grandma's lemon cake recipe. The color was achieved by equal amounts of Americolor Teal and Sky Blue. Your critique very welcome! (Critique: assessment of something, usually a creative work, with comments on its good and bad qualities.) Thanks super big bunches.

I adore this cake! It is so beautiful! Is this color true to the actual cake color? Reason I'm asking is sometimes I know the flash can make it brighter. This is the color I am wanting to achieve for my cake for the cake show in a few weeks!

The darker back corner is the true color. I let the color ripen a day after mixing and kneeding it into Satin Ice Fondant. (When I went online and to check out Tiffany boxes, I had thought it too bright - LOL.) Good luck on your show! Thank you so much for the feedback.
