This was my second wedding cake I've done. It is iced in red buttercream with white fondant ribbons to resemble a present. It was very hard to place on cake because of so much RED! Bottom tier is fake. Top bow of cake is purchased.
For the red color I used Americolor Super Red. I usually use Wilton but decided to try Americolor. I was pleased with the results and really didn't have to use much. For the detail on the fondant and loops I used royal icing.

Beautiful! How did you get the red color? How did you get the loops on the edges of some of the fondant ribbons?
