So I just finished my Wilton Course 3 Final cake last night and would really love you guys to take a look at it and tell me what you think. All comments are appreciated, I would love to know how to make it better.

Bottom tier is orange cake with orange buttercream filling, covered in MMF. Top tier is banana cake with buttercream filling covered in MMF.

Roses are made out of Wilton fondant and sepals and leaves are MMF. All borders and dots are buttercream.

I had sooooo much fun making this cake and really am going to miss my Monday night classes! I am thinking about teaching, but the closest opening is 45 minutes to an hour from my home. I may do it anyway. We'll see.

I am not at my own computer and can't seem to get my pic to attach from here so you will hav to view in my gallery:

Thanks for taking the time to look!

Wow, those roses really look great! The whole cake looks wonderful. As someone else mentioned, I would have preferred the 2 tiers to be the same height. The dots look perfect!

Thanks everyone! Yes I would have liked the cakes to be the same height as well, but when I baked my cakes I used a new recipe and the bottom cake didn't make as much batter as needed, I didn't have any extra ingredients so had to go with it. I didn't want to cut the height on the top tier so I left it. Plus the pillars would have been too short for a taller bottom cake and left no room for the roses. Also I smeared the border when I transported it home, thus the flaw on the bottom border.

Thanks again for all the comments!
