Jewels
this is my first jewels cake. i didn't know what to do for the gems so i used jolly ranchers and shaved them with sandpaper, thanks to someone here for that tip. i don't recommend doing that because it was tedious and sticky. i would have made my own candy and used the jewel mold, but my mold came in too late, so i had to go with jolly ranchers. the pearls are edible pearls and some are mixed with flavoring and pearl dust.

the customer sent me a picture of this cake and asked me if i could do it...i hesitated a while, but then said yes. she never told me that some of the pieces were plastic, which would have made it a lot easier for me. i had to do it all with icing. she didn't want to crown or flag or princesses, said she was changing it to be a my little pony cake. never again!! the flowers and hearts are royal icing the rest is buttercream. i used construction paper to make the cutout that went around the castle.
