Miniature Cake

3 inch base, 2 inch center, 1 inch top I tried to ice these in buttercream and failed miserably and then moved to fondant. Even the fondant was fiddly and it wrinkled and well it was not good at all. The cake was a mess, i just took the picture from the best angle that i could find to hide all the horrible bits. The piping is done in buttercream, the roses are royal icing, the base is fondant.

fran, this would be gone in a couple of bites. Plus it's not a very nice cake, i was experimenting with my buttercake and put orange essence in it, not the best.
