I made this Mardi Gras cake for a local business who contracted me to make a monthly birthday cake for thier staff. Most of the time, I have free reign on design and theme. For March I decided to go with this. The mask is hand crafted from gumpaste, with gumpaste accents and silver dragees - all hand painted. My client loved the mask so much, they have decided to keep it and display it at their office. TFL
