the cake is a french vanilla 2-layer 9-inch round cake. i angled the cake sides in just slightly the top is iced with light blue bc. the sides are grey bc, i used a couple drops of black food coloring in the bc to make the color. the handles are made out of fondant. the ice cubes are fondant blocks with sparkling sugar stuck to them. the bottles are from my local liquor store where they had a crate full of 99 cent bottles. very handy and a great gift to go with the cake.
