First Fondant Bow Birthday Cake

First Fondant Bow Birthday Cake on Cake Central

This was my first attempt at a fondant bow. Had some issues with assembly since the loops didn't want to stack into the center. Any advice would be great! Cake is a vanilla sponge cake with fresh strawberry filling and vanilla cream frosting. Still need help with those square corners, but I think I'm getting a little bit better since this was the 4th square/rectangular cake I've done. Any tips on that would be appreciated too :)

Awesome bow! I still have to get the courage to tackle one of those - great job. I don't see a problem with your corners at all!

It looks nice! When you make the bow loops, twist the ends of each to a point. That way the ends will be narrow enough to fit together in the middle.
