I made this wedding cake for my daughter and I would love to know if anyone else has done a similar cake and what you think it's worth. The roses and filler flowers were made out of gumpaste and it took me weeks to finish all of them. Four of these tiers are dummies, I only used real cakes for the cutting and for the 6" 1 year anniversary cake. We served the guests layered sheet cakes. I'd love some feedback.

Wow, this is just beautiful!! I am sure your daughter was very excited when she saw it!! Great job!!
Looks to me you did a great job:) JUst a bit of info if you ever need to make another: make about 1/3 of your flowers smaller roses so the sizes vary as you go up. I have made several - one w/calla lilies and 2 with roses:

looks like a sylvia weinstock -- wow!
i'd say like $6 a serving plus the flowers -- like idk maybe $250 for the flowers -- but i know most of it was not served but if it was served -- and this is off the top of my head -- and i can't tell what the decor is on three textured tiers -- so assuming that is fairly straight forward type decor -- like anything on a family wedding cake is straight forward but you know what i mean -- if you applied that with tweezers piece by piece yeah the price should go up :)
gorgeous -- gorgeous-- gorgeous -- labor of love -- seriously looks like a s.w.
are those textured tiers covered with lace?
it's just oozing with incredible flowers --
-k8memphis, thank you very much for your kind words. The textured tiers are covered with Claire Bowman cake lace.
This cake is truly incredible! I hope your daughter bought you a massage or something else lovely to thank you for this! What a labor of love!
