This cake is always a hit & fun to make. The colors are great attention getters for kids. The 1st time I made it I followed the instructions exactly. My Granddaughter loved it. I recently made it again and decided it would look great with the large candy buttons along with the fondat circles. I set the ribbons on straws and let sit for a couple days. They are still fragile not matter how long they sit so be careful placing them on the cake and just make lots of them. My Grandson loved his cake.

This was a fun cake to make and it was very well received. I made it for a 60th birthday party for a guy with really big feet, and it just added to the festive mood. The fondant curls were easy to execute and fun to make.

I tried this cake this past weekend for my sister-n-law's birthday and although I didn't have the cute feet to put it on, it turned out really cute. I have just completed my first cake decorating class (and now am starting fondant and gum past class) and I found this cake easy to do. Thanks Wilton for posting such cute cakes.
