This elegant birthday cake makes me wish it were warmer outside and that the beautiful Spring roses on top were real! But, alas, it is COLD and all living blossoms are tucked safely in their cocoon of hibernation. So, I created intricate roses out of gum paste instead! They are every bit as beautiful as the "real thing," but are made of sugar. An added bonus is they never need to be watered, weeded, or pruned. Eye candy extraordinaire!
This cake is signature Sweet T inside and out: delicious vanilla cake, filled with vanilla buttercream, and topped with made-from-scratch fondant (no marshmallows in my fondant . . . just pure tastiness). My favorite details are the two fondant drapes on opposite corners. Eating this fancy cake is certainly the best way to celebrate a Happy 85th Birthday!
