Easter Basket Cake

Easter Basket Cake on Cake Central

The basket is 3 layers of yellow cake (9" I believe) decorated with canned chocolate frosting. The handle is MMF wrapped around a wire coat hanger. The egg is german chocolate cake in a Wilton egg pan. It's covered in coconut MMF and decorated with MMF and canned frosting. The grass is dyed coconut. It was my first time ever with MMF and my first attempt at basket weave in several years. I was really disappointed with how it turned out. But my husband and all of the people at the party were in awe and said it was just fabulous. I think it's half me being my own worst critic, half them not knowing what a really great cake should look like. Anyway, I was inspired by mrs_planeflyer's cake from last year. I hope mine will be that good someday!! I learned a lot from this cake though. Thanks for looking and any input would be appreciated.
