Sweet 16

The birthday gal wanted violet and yellow and bows. The topper is gumpaste/fondant, made to look like tiles...I cut each diamond individually and then "glued" it to a gumpaste "vase" I made and dried. Wanted to pull my hair out.

I am totally loving this cake. You are my hero. How did you do the diamond impressions? Is the whole cake fondant?

The cake is BC...*L*...only used the fondant for the topper and 50/50 for bows...used a diamond impression mat for the cake sides and to cut out the diamonds for the topper.
