I made this for my cousin's daughter. She wanted a zebra print and I got my inspiration from a cake I saw on this site. I added another tier and did my first fondant curly q's and bow. I made the 13 out of floral wire and covered it in fondant. I am no good at smoothing out the icing and it always ends up being too much and too soft..any ideas how to make it stiffer and smoother would be awesome and so appreciated. All in all this was a very fun cake.
