Baby Rump Cake With Zebra Striped Blanket, Buttons And Bows

I got this idea from many here on Cake central and google images. This is actually my second one, I am still trying to find the pictures of the first one. This was for a baby shower and the theme was princess and zebra print. I bought a tiara and scepter that were set next to the baby and the diaper print is made with the wilton molds with the sort of victorian theme. There is a really tiny crown on the diaper above the bow. I really love making this cake, and everyone is always thrilled with it, though no one ever wants to cut into the baby! This cake was chocolate with butter almond cream cheese frosting for the filling and topping, with fondant over it. It has been so hot and humid here, that no matter how much frosting I put over it, the chocolate cake still faintly showed through the fondant. It wasn't a big deal to anyone but me, but it was still irritating. I tried refrigeration and everything, but the cream cheese frosting just kept melting off! Grrrr...
