Flower Basket

Flower Basket on Cake Central

I made this for my sister's birthday a few days ago. I had problems with the buttercream...it was too soft and wouldn't do what I wanted it to. My sister loved it and said it was beautiful. Its an 8" vanilla cake with orange buttercream. All the flowers are MMF. I made the handle from wire,straws and ribbon.

thankyou Cakegirl20...it was real easy,I twisted 2 pipe cleaners together then pushed a straw at both ends meeting in the middle. That way only the straws go into the cake,not the wire Then add the ribbon :)
