This was made for a 50th aniversary and auction for my daughter's school. Flowers are gum paste. (working on the sunflower, its improving) Butterfliers are gem cutters. "50" is poured sugar. I used modeling chocolate for the mold and cut out the "5" and "0". I wasn't sure if modeling chocolate would work as a mold. I was pleased that it worked wonderfully. 6 inch round was vanilla cake with strawberries layered with chocolate ganache and chocolate cream. 9 inch tier was chocolate cake filled with fress strawberries and vanilla cream
