Granny's 70Th Birthday Cake

Granny's 70Th Birthday Cake on Cake Central

This was my first cake done using fondant; the whole top is rolled fondant and all the roses and the butterfly is fondant. The basket weave and the border are buttercream frosting. This was originally going to be a basket full of flowers, but the handle that I tried to make kept breaking, so I gave up.

Thank you! I have a 55 piece tip set that is made by 'Ateco', I used tip #4. I don't know if the tip numbers are similar to Wilton, but I know Wilton makes the same size tip.

To tell you the honest truth, it wouldn't have even crossed my mind if I'd been able to make buttercream roses, but for some reason I'm inept!
