Top layer is almond cake w/almond custard filling. Bottom layer is butter white cake. All covered in buttercream. Pirouline cookies surround the top tier. Thanks to all who posted how to decorate cake with piroulines and also how to decorate with fresh flowers. I opted for blobs of buttercream on top of cake, then cut rose stems as short as possible and just placed on top of the blobs. Food safe and everyone enjoyed it. Don't do cakes much anymore, but I'm proud of how this one turned out.

All buttercream
All buttercream. I'm not very good at piping yet, and I'm afraid to decorate directly onto the cake for fear of messing it up, so my method is to trace a cookie cutter on wax paper, then fill in w/different colors, etc., and pop into the freezer. After it's frozen, I run a thin spatula between the design and the wax paper to release it, then pop it onto the cake. Where there's a will, there's a way. Cakes used to intimidate me, but the more I do them, the more comfortable I feel.
Made 2 dozen cookies for coffee shop I supply, then got sick and was unable to deliver them timely. Oh, well, we ate them eventually.
