A Big Flower

One thing I love about my friend, Christy, is she doesn't mind letting me experiment.  She asked me to make a cake for one of her daughters and do whatever I wanted.  I had seen a version of this online and wanted to try it for myself.  The online version was better, of course, but I had fun trying!  The cake is iced to a smooth finish and then a big fondant/gumpaste flower is attached to the side to cover the entire height of the cake.  It looked better when I first did it, but after a bit it started to droop....guess I should have used more gumpaste??  Either way, they liked it and that's really all that matters :)
