I was asked to do a 1st birthday cake for a friend's granddaughter. She told me she wanted it to be 3 tiers with zebra print with a pink ribbon between each tier and fresh flowers on the top. I made the bottom tier chocolate cake, the middle tier white cake, and the top tier marble cake. I iced all tree tiers with buttercream and used black fondant to create the zebra stripes. The pink ribbon was also bade with buttercream. After I delivered the cake, the grandma added fresh flowers that she had picked out. Everyone seemed to really love this cake. And the birthday girl was dressed to match it. =)
