Gradutation Silver & Black

Gradutation Silver & Black on Cake Central

10" square, 8" round RV with decorator's cream cheese. TheCakeWizard's Chocolate and Toba's Vanilla Fondant. Paisley ideas came from several cakes but specifically from Yourstrulytx. Silver glaze used as paint. Thanks to Amy729 for her black stripes, although mine are random cause I couldn't get them perfect like hers! And sweetsbyl for her gorgeous mortar board and tassel. You guys did gorgeous cakes! Thanks for posting them!

I made the fondant really soft with crisco and I think I added some tylose. Then I pressed it through my garlic press since I don't have a clay gun thing. I had to split the press in half to get the amount I needed. Then I folded over the top to make the loop and wrapped it with more fondant that I painted gold. I painted the tassle with the silver glaze. Have I mentioned I am totally in love with that stuff!???
