A Funky Wedding Cake and a first-ever Grooms Cake

I thought this was really cool when all was said and done. It was definitely better than I thought it would turn out- I was pretty skeptical when the bride described it- but now I think it is pretty darn cool. The grooms cake was cool too but I wouldn't say I love it- what I would say is I feel good about having followed the direction I was given. On the wedding cake I was really proud of the fondant job. I knew it had to be good at the bottom since there would be no border to cover up the mistakes- the circles could could cover up many a side bulge, bubble, or crack but the bottoms of each tier had to be neat.

The Grooms cake.
The scoreboard thing was made of gumpaste and fondant and I orginally piped the lettering in royal icing. However, much of the royal icing dried and flaked off of the sign because I had to move it so then I re-piped a lot of it with buttercream. I really just prefer fondant cakes because they look so much more professional. The baseball on top was my favorite part and it was cake covered in fondant and the red lines are fondant too. My son told me he wants the exact same cake for his birthday... we'll see!
