Princess Ghost


I love the fact that the little girl who requested this cake was original enough to say,
 "I want a spooky princess party", in the middle of April! Her mom and I decided that a princess ghost cake would work best for her birthday. 
I made 3, 8'' cake layers, 2, 6'' cake layers and 1, 4'' cake layer. I sandwiched them together with chocolate frosting, and took my trusty kitchen knife and carved the top into a mounded top. I then frosted the whole cake and then covered it with fondant. I made the crown and wand the day before with gum paste so it had time to harden. Then painted them with gold coloring. The face is made of fondant and painted with black, pink and blue color paste for a rich, bright color.
