Leah's Wedding Cake

Leah and Stan's cake

I used the Wilton oval pan set. The bottom layer was white cake, then spice cake, then german chocolate cake and the top layer was butter flavor.

I made buttercreme icing and smoothed with Viva! paper towels.

Leah designed the cake and each layer was different.

The bottom was scrolls, next was dots, next layer was stripes of a sort the the top layer had more scrolls on it.

Leah made the topper out of shrinky dinks! it was FANTASTIC!

I used 2 types of ribbon around the bottom of each layer. And I put the cake on a large mirror.

Been trying to reply for two days from my phone and it won't let me...arrrrggghhhhh! :/

hobby Lobby has shrinky dinks that you can run thru your printer!!!!! They are $12.99 for 6 sheets.....but use the 40% off coupon if you have it!
They are pricey but obviously worth the money, The topper was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments!!!!
I NEEDED to make this cake.....just didn't realize it until I had finished.

Oh, and the ribbon around each layer didn't exactly work properly....the double sided tape wasn't working and the trim wouldn't stick to the ribbon....so.....we found a stapler and stapled it on the entire length of the ribbon! lol But it worked..... ;}

shrinky dinks?
by: Geri

How did she use shrinky dinks? I have only seen them in things like bugs...I'm intrigued.
