Whimsical Gift Box Cake


Red velvet fondant cake with swiss meringue buttercream

This was a cake I made for a girl who was turning 8 this year.  She loves horses, so I thought I'd make a little pony for her.  At the end I decided to add some butterflies as well just to have a more girlie feeling to it ;) 

This was a 4-layer red velvet cake.  Each layer was 2" high, so this was a pretty big and heavy cake.

As it was so heavy, I had to make a sturdy cake board as well.  I always provide thick and sturdy cake boards to support heavy cakes.
