Garden Baby Shower Cake

A Baby Shower cake for a mom who didn't want a traditional "pastel pink" and frilly cake to celebrate her baby girl. I covered the cake in a light royal blue/delphinium blue fondant. Three different shades of green fondant grass in various lengths and thicknesses. The purple flowers are a mix of violet and burgandy, trying to achieve a more "plum" look (the color's of the babies room). I created the purple flowers by rolling small grape sized balls, slightly flattening and then using a ball tool to make the flower petals more concave. I then pinched on end and attached to the cake, finally placing a spiral center where the tips met. I brushed the entire thing with a generous dusting of white pearl luster dust using a fluffy artist brush. I definately need some practice on my writing skills... my only disappointment with this cake! The cake itself was chocolate, with a white chocolate- mini chocolate chip mousse.
