That was a lot of questions!
Never amde any, but I've seen people put little buttercream flowers on them. Do a search in the galleries and I'm sure you'll see a ton. 
Allow yourself plenty of time for these. There are several ways to do them. I bake my cake in a jelly roll pan, you do not want these extremely tall. You can do straight cake or make two and put a filling in them, or make one and squirt some filling in them like a twinkie. You can cut them in squares, or use metal cutters in different shapes. You could also bake some mini cups and turn them upside down and ice. Some people use a poured fondant or melted chocolate to coat them. Once the icing has set, you can put a small flower or other small decoration on them. I use the cupcake papers to put each one in. When you are pouring, make sure that the coating completely covers the cake. Use a cooling rack to set your cakes on so the icing will fall through, you can reuse it. Let the cakes dry completely before picking them up, and use a spatula to slide under the cake to remove from screen.These are time consuming. Good Luck.
