Wild 40Th Birthday Cake

Wild 40Th Birthday Cake on Cake Central

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.

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. :?
