I baked 3-8" cakes and cut them in half then iced in between to hold them together then baked a 10" and cut it to overlap a little for the pill bottle cap. I did a white crumb coat on it and extra heavy coat in dead center of bottle.Then colored the icing with copper coloring and iced the cake leaving a white square in center of cake. Then I used a star tip for the cap. Loved doing this cake, it was really fun :)
