First Wedding Cake

First Wedding Cake on Cake Central

My first official wedding cake. It was a 3 tier (6", 9" & 12"), staked cake with 2 - 2' layers in each tier. It was filled & crumb-coated with buttercream and covered in White Fondant. The Ribbons were strips of fondant embossed with a rolling pin and brushed with Luster Dust in white. The flowers were all gumpaste & hand painted with edible chalks & luster dusts. My sister-in-law was kind enough to bake and fill the cakes for me and assist me in covering the cakes with fondant. Suggestions/Comments?

I love your cake!! Awesome. Looks very professional. The embossing is a great touch, I would love to know where you got that rolling pin.

Thank you All So Much!!! :D You are all super sweet! The cake was so much fun to do! The embossing rolling pin was one I bought this year at ICES in Dallas - it was CHEAP!!! As for the lusterdust... I made the mistake of brushing it on after the ribbon was on and in the fridge overnight! It started sweating and was sticky to brush on. In the future I will do it before I put it on! Live and Learn!!! :USA:
