I made this cake for my brother's wedding. I transported it unstacked over 5 hours. The top two tiers are styrofoam and the bottom layer is chocolate peppermint with buttercream frosting mixed with crushed candy cane for the filling. I stacked and piped the border and dots at the reception. The flowers are silk and were arranged by my sister Katie. The topper was provided by the bride. The border and dots were piped using royal icing.
I got this idea from http://www.sugarcreations.com/ . Thank you Rebecca Sutterby for the idea. The cake is covered in fondant with royal icing piping details. The flowers are fondant.
