My First Pillow Cake

My First Pillow Cake on Cake Central

I really haven't used fondant EVER at home, besides the cake I did for my Colette class, so I consider this my first fondant attempt. Also my first pillow cake. I would have carved the bottom a bit more, but the cake recipe I was experimenting with was a little too dense for carving. I made the crown out of gumpaste and royal icing (more sturdy). This was a HUGE learning experience cake, so I guess I would consider it a semi-success!

It's beautiful. I think you did great! I love the color and the tiara. I've only done one tiara and I did the same thing you did. Made it from GP and then piped RI designs before painting.
