This is a two-layer cake, frosted in very pale, ice-blue, bakery BC. All of the decorations on the top are BC except for the white banner (royal icing colorflow), and the Holly leaves (which were made ahead of time from a mixture of half BC and half royal icing). The pine cones were piped onto very narrow, short, wooden skewers (using tips 80 or 81) that were then stuck into the cake (using a pair of long scissors as the "forceps" to carefully insert each one!). The entire top of the cake was liberally dusted with "Snow Sparkle," which I assume is just a form of luster dust that's a bit more sparkly and very white. It's hard to really see the sparkles in the photo, but if any light is shining on the cake it glistens very nicely.
