I just finished handing off the cake! It's the first "cheap" cake that I feel good about. Please look at my cake pics and tell me what you think, please. It's the two-tier buttercream cake. TIA

That is a very nice little cake and the monogram is top-notch! I love how you swirled the top and bottom of the "D" around.

Teasom, thanks! After I let the writing (buttercream) crust, I painted lightly on it with an artist brush, cognac and super pearl dust. I wanted the writing to pop as they only wanted the one color. TFL
