This is my third attempt at a tiara for my sister's sweet sixteen cake. The other two were too delicate and broke while I was trying to remove them from the wax paper. I used royal frosting and silver dragees. This actually smashed before I had a chance to get it on the cake - I tripped over one of my son's toys while I was carrying it out to the car and even though I had it in a container it smashed when I hit the ground. :( I just went to walmart and bought a tiara to put on the cake and my sister was perfectly happy. :)
