Sunday Sweets:Ballet Cake

I realize I haven't shared with you my latest cake creations, which I like to do on Sundays.

I had a client ask for a pretty stacked cake with a dance and flower theme.

I made all of the flowers from sugar gum paste and covered the cake in fondant. I went with the-ever-so-popular ombre look by making the bottom tier the darkest pink and the top tier the lightest pink.



I did a sort of ruffle design using each color on the bottom to resemble tu-tus
Since my client was buying the cake for a friend who is a ballet teacher I made some cute little ballet slippers for the top, also out of fondant.



My client loved it which made me very happy. :)
