Quasi Birthday Cake


Well technically this isn't a birthday cake--it isn't even a cake. I decided to practice some cake decorating in advance of my birthday because I couldn't decide what to make for my birthday cake. It hasn't actually helped me make up my mind but it was fun!

This is a cake dummy covered with white fondant and decorated with fondant cutouts and silver dragées. It was really very easy to make. The decorations are just 3 sizes of flowers cut from two colors of fondant. I didn't use and shaping tool or anything fancy, just stuck them right on the cake (with a bit of water). Then just a drop of water to stick the dragées onto the flowers and voilà! I think it's pretty and quite fun!
