Birthday Cake!

So I made my second fondant cake a few weeks ago. Sorry the post is late, but I got frustrated trying to get my photos on here and had to step away for a bit before trying again. My daughter decided on a beautiful hibiscus two-tiered cake for her party.

Here is the photo that inspired us -


A few color changes and this is our version -


Pretty okay for a beginner. We used a piece of scrapbook paper as a template. Cut out the paper hibiscus and laid it on the fondant and cut around it. I need to get stocked up on the flower cutters so I can really make nice ones. My daughter and my sister did a lot of the work on this, so they deserve some credit. Nice job Lauren and Jenn!!
