Eventually we moved onto making cakes using real cake and buttercream icing. The process for icing and covering a wedding cake can be quite extensive. Or at least for someone who is doing it the first time around. The cake to the left is another practice cake. The bottom base is colored in a Martha Stewart-esque pale green. I made hydrangeas and leaves for the flowers. I think the cake would have looked better if there was a fuller crown of hydrangeas topping the cake and if they were more delicate. Also, my fondant work could be better. When I cut into the cake later, I found out that I put way too much icing on. This resulted in a very heavy cake!
