Oh, that's beatiful! How did you make the intricate details on the black decorations? I'm always so impressed with artists like yourself who do things so neatly! It is so pretty.
i have to second on PuffMamaT's question , how did u make those designs?8O piping painting..fondant cutouts maybe? or did u do chocolates in that shape i've seen that in places like martha stuart you buy a pack of chocolate molds and after covering the cake in fondat attach the chocolates on top of the fondant...very very good job!
i held the stencil in place and spread the icing over it with a spatula. then i went over it with a plastic scraper (like you would use in painting or wallpapering) to remove as much excess icing as possible. it worked well on the top flat surface, but i got into trouble on the sides. i wasn't able to remove as much icing and it was a little "globby" (don't think that's a work is it?). hope that explanation made some sense to you.
thanks for your comments. the designs were done with a stencil and royal icing. had never tried to stencil onto the cake before--had done it on the board . it was a little tricky, i thought, to get the sides to look good. thus, the ribbon around the base of the cake!

Perfection! What an awesome looking cake :D
Wow! Just gorgeous!!!
I love the design. do you just put the stencil on the cake and pipe the icing in and then smooth over or is it something else?
Wow, that is so pretty! I love the black decorations, and the bow tie :P
