Fall Sheet Cake for Church Dinner

This is my first and largest cake done to date. It is a half sheet cake, White Chocolate with Butter Crisco Buttercream icing (thus the nice creamy color) and decorations. I won't even go into the problems with this cake... you think 'what could go wrong with a sheet cake' let me tell you! It wasn't at all what I had in mind to decorate it with when I started. I am very pleased with the results though. I also tried a new large leaf tip border and inserted the small leaves. I like the look of it.

Thank's ladies... It's nice to hear all the good comments after I had so much trouble with it. But I wanted to clarify, and maybe you already figured it out... this wasn't my first cake ever done, it's my first large sheet cake ever done. Thanks again!

Wow...what a beautiful design. I need to do one for a 50th birthday party for a lady, may I use your design? How beautiful!!!

You may certainly use the design... it all comes from good ideas at CC! Thanks for the vote of confidence. When I dropped it off at church today they didn't want to cut it!
