7 Tier Royal Icing Cake

7 Tier Royal Icing Cake on Cake Central

This cake was 7 tiers, all different flavors, with different fillings. The base cake was 34" and I had to take the door of its hinges to get it out of the house. This cake weighed approximately 400 lbs. there was 45 pounds of buttercream on it alone! Boy what was I thinking?

This is absolutely amazing! Congratulations for the beautiful results on this awesome project. Are those royal icing roses? How many are there? How long did this take for you to make? Beautiful!

This cake has 1400 royal icing roses. This cake took 1 week to bake and 6 hours to put together at the wedding. The first 4 layers were moved stacked together, and the last 3 were moved stacked together and the final stack happened at the wedding. This cake consisted of 96 cakes total. It took my husband and 3 grown boys to move this beast! The base is made out of plywood tht the brides family made.

I should have charged 4.00 per slice or 4,000.00, but because the parent told me they were going to have me to another cake forthem in September, I only charged them 1,000.00 BAD move, since I had over 186 hours in this cake

WOW!!!! I can't believe this cake! 1400 roses alone is amazing, let alone the rest of the beautiful cake!!!

Where did this idea come from??? Was it the bride who envisioned this HUMUNGO design?? How is your wrist feeling?? This is just a beast of a cake!!! I bet there was a "pretty penny" spent on this!!!! Totally amazing!

OH MY!!! how in the world....I'm tired just thinking about how long this one took to decorate!! so big and so beautiful!! i just love all the roses!

Actually this cake only cost 150.00 to make...I spent 186 hours on it...Lost money on my labor. This cake was a mock of Donald Trumps latest cake. Too bad I did not charge the price He paid for his cake!

Yeah I am doing this for my wedding... but on a smaller scale... I have 6 months to do the cake, and I'm going to start doing the roses at least a month in advance... My cake will probably be about half the size, but I'm already looking forward to piping all those roses
