I loved doing this cake. I painted the scrolling on with edible paint, instead of piping it. I really love the look of it! I hope I can do more of this. It's been alot of years since I've held a paint brush in my hands...didn't think I'd remember how to paint! I did all the roses and other flowers...much thanks to my new friend Mari for helping to get them all wired on time. I had several things happen that got me behind, including a last minute redo of the bottom 2 tiers! UGGHH!! The top of the cake came off during transport, a plate covered in fondant to hold up the 2 and half pound topper.....brides just don't think about little things like that sometimes! We had to "repair" it on site, and that didn't work very well due to the fact that there was poor lighting, way too hot and a fan pointed directly on the cake!! I tried to cover it up the best I could with the ivy. I did the scrolling design to exactly match the wedding invitations. The mother of the groom thought that was a very thoughtful and beautiful touch. Don't know how the bride liked it yet. I hope she was pleased. The flower placement was not the best, but it was how she requested...I would have like to have stayed "minimal" since the scroll work is so pretty. This is my fav, and my most painful cake to date! MY HANDS ARE KILLING ME!!!! :P
