Final Exam Cake Photos

Top shelf:
Golden Vanilla Cake with Citrus Buttercream and Berry Preserves
Book covered in chocolate plastic, piping done with royal icing.

Bottom shelf:
Chocolate Mmmm Cake with Midnight Ganache
Books covered in fondant and chocolate plastic, piping done with royal icing.

All roses and begonias are edible.

(I will post detailed in-progress stuff later this week, probably.)

Then we moved the cake closer to the kitchen, so the lighting changed slightly. Cake and flowers were still ok even a few hours later...





Thanks for checking out these photos! Anyone need me to make a cake for them?

    Thanks, Amy!
    It was a lot of fun making the cake, I would definitely like to do it again. :-) Maybe with a little more experience I could fix some of the parts I don't think came out well with this cake...

    I can't imagine what you are seeing as "some parts" but in truth only you would know. It looks just like your sketch only better and in color!
