My Wedding Cake

his is the cake I plan on making for my wedding which should be quite simple since I just basically have to make it, cover it with the fondant, put on each layer, put the columns in, put the plates on till I get the top and the put the flowers around the top of each layer.

This is where to get each of the items I just mentions:

(Be sure to check out the earlier post with how to make a fondant, wedding cake.)

You can find rolled fondant at a Michael's, Walmart in the bride else, but the Satin Ice fondant is the best to use and taste better. You can buy some online at www.fondantsource.com, 5 lbs for $14.29 to cover your cake. The HERE to be linked directly to the satin ice fondant (it taste better).

Step 1:

For me that was picking out the style of cake that I wanted and found one on the internet that I liked. There are over 300 hundred of them at this HERE.

Step 2:

Next I had to figure out where to get the stands and columns that this one used. Click HERE for those that I found below.

It doesn't come assembled, the pieces are sold separately. For 4 plates: 12'', 8'', 6'', and 4'', that's $27.00. The columns are in a set of 12 and the one I'll get cost: $14.

Step 3: Find the decorations:

The ribbon is sold at Walmart for 33cents per yard, and for that cake, it looks like 15 yards to go around the cake and 10 for the bow. So I will probably just buy a 25 yard roll at Walmart, Michael', or a Hancock Fabrics.

The flowers: I will be using some of the velvet roses, that I am buying for my centerpieces from efavormart.com for $34.99 for 168. They look very real. Find the flowers that are pictures below HERE!
