The Polka Dot Teapot

The Polka Dot Teapot on Cake Central

Lemon Buttermilk Pound cake with Raspberry Curd filling and White Chocolate icing. 8'/2 layer round on bottom, ball pan teapot; MMF/Gumpaste (50/50) for all decos. Had issues with the handle..part of the bottom broke off but was able to patch it long enough to get pics and serve. First time using entire ball pan for a cake -first time covering a cake in fondant-first time delivering a cake more than 30 minutes away...and it made it!! Thanks to those here who helped with my questions & thanks for looking!

Thanks y'all! Atkin600: I used Americolor brand gel paste...mostly the deep pink shade with a couple of drops of purple, little bit of ivory to mute it and a tiny, tiny bit of tulip red to deepen it a little more.

looks beautiful! Did you have a hard time getting the fondant over the ball cake? Looks really great ..I have to do one of these very soon, but haven't had to cover a ball cake as of yet..
