This was my first wedding cake! All cream cheese buttercream, red velvet with a raspberry white chocolate cream cheese filling. The peacock was made out of gumpaste and painted with luster dust and pearl airbrush paint. I love how it turned out! I made the feathers from a silicone mold and attached them to a fondant/gumpaste tale base. The hardest part was the weight of the tail and bird. I had to add a lot of support to keep it from tearing off the back of the top tier and gave it a slight lean. Not sure how to counter act that in the future, but I'd make one again anytime!
