The whimsical cake above is enrobed in a variety of rich colored fondant. Topped with Gerbera daisy's and surrounded by a bed of red roses, this topsy turvy cake is a gorgeous winter wedding cake. This design would be appropriate for a black and white theme as well.

gorgeous example above has a sparkly blue fondant with gum paste or
fondant snowflakes and snow drifts. The contrast of the deep blue and
the white decoration is striking.
