This cake turned out to be the perfect finale to the wedding reception. I made a simple, two-tiered square cake and covered it with white fondant. I piped a simple bead border at the base of both tiers. Then, I added a detailed cherry blossom branch all made out of fondant. I formed the branch out of wire and molded brown fondant around the wire. Once I had the branch the way I wanted it, I laid it on the cake and secured it to the cake with a little more wire. I then added delicate white blossoms that I made from fondant and dusted with a pink luster dust. I also created flower buds and little green leaves which I added to the branch. I finished the design by scattering a few additional cherry blossoms around the sides of the cake, just to add a little more color. The result was simple and beautiful, my theme for the whole reception. I loved the way it turned out, almost as much as the guests loved the taste of the cake! The top tier was chocolate chocolate chip cake with a cookies & cream filling. The bottom layer was white cake with strawberry filling. And I displayed the cake on my elegant silver cake stand. Love it!
