Wild 40Th Birthday Cake
Sure feels good to post a cake...it's been a while. 10" round choco/choco cake covered with fondant and hand painted zebra stripes using Wilton paste black. I used black silk leafs around the border and added snipped silk hydrangeas for accent color. The topper is a terracotta pot painted black and turned upside down, filled the hole with black fondant to hold the flower in place. The cake is sitting on a box wrapped in zebra gift wrap. The party was as wild as the cake! Enjoy.
fun cake elly!
I use vodka to thin down my paste which evaporates right away. I usually tell people they don't have to eat the fondant since it's rather bland anyway. :?
Fantastic! Love this wild cake.
Fabulous! I really love the zebra theme. :D
Does the black paint have any flavor? I'm always afraid to use black...bad experience with a Mickey cake!
Beautiful!
