Buttercream with fondant and gumpaste decorations. I've always wanted to do a princess cake (mommy to boys here!) and I was thrilled when I was asked to this for a birthday this weekend. And imagine my joy when she showed me a picture she had pulled from the internet and it was SugarShacks princess cake!! I knew I would find a tutorial! I love you Sharon! The writing on the ribbon was the hardest part. I don't have an edible image printer. Had to use food markers. The crown had to be painted with a brush which was pretty time consuming since i don't have an airbursh machine. The jewels on the crown are not edible.
