I have an order to make a cake for a Bridal shower, which will be chinese themed.
I have the Chinese symbol for love, which was requested and know that she wants a red shiny finish to the cake, with black accents, plus whatever I think would go.
I am not really sure What to do.. Can ANYBODY help?
You might not need a cake this big but I thought it might give you some ideas...

Could be fondant. It's what I'd use. By accents, do you mean the chinese characters? I was thinking those might be royal icing/color flow pieces or they might be piped right onto the cake. They could also be made using strips of fondant. Not really sure. You could probably do it a number of ways.
I've seen one with a huge fortune cookie (made of fondant) with a message sticking out...and the message said something nice about having a long and properous life together...which they got when they "cracked" the fondant fortune cookie open along with an engagement ring inside!! It was sooo cool!
