Marine Groom's Cake
I made this groom's cake for my best friend's son. It is a square 16 inch cake on the bottom covered in chocolate buttercream, and (3) 12 inch rounds for the top, I tapered the top 2 layer so that it was slanted. The emblem was a 12 inch piece of styro foam covered in black fondant, then a circle of red fondant for the center. The emblem itself is made from a chocolate mold, but I used fondant to make the emblem. All of the gold is gold highlighter mixed with confectioners glaze and hand painted.
Amazing detail on this cake! Its a terrific design and executed so nicely. Thanks for sharing your techniques!
You must have been very proud to do this cake for a man in the service, and it is a beautiful cake.
My DH and I are both former marines. Wish we would have had something like this when we got married. Semper Fi!
