During our family reunion this year the theme was celebrating marriage and we figured up that there was a combined 458 years of marriage present at the reunion so I made this cake to celebrate that and 4 couples that have been married over 60 years! The reunion also takes place 4th of July weekend so I tied that in as well. 10", 8" and 6" round white almond sour cream cake with fresh raspberry filling iced in almond buttercream covered in MMF. Bows are fondant and brooches are faux gems and royal icing painted with luster dust. Cake topper is resin. There was a bit of bubbling going on in the fondant ( most likely because it traveled 5 hours to get there and the temp once we got there was 90) I tried fixing this with a pin and fondant smoother but it didn't help they just came back. Let me know if you have a better fix for this.
