I did this cake for a bridal shower tea party, and was pretty happy with it over all. It was three 10 inch and two 9 inch cakes- stacked, carved and covered in fondant. Stripes are hand painted with vodka and food coloring and all flowers are fondant. The handle is gum paste and the spout is styrofoam covered in fondant. I had a really hard time attaching the spout- the fondant was cracking like crazy! But, otherwise, it came out nice! TFL!!
