Thank you!! Everything on this cake is buttercream! I did color the icing using food coloring gels, I believe I just added a TAD of brown to get the tan color! Good luck!

Hi I love this cake, it is the best one I have seen. Is the white buttercream? What is the tan?

Great job! I love your cake.One question...About how many people would that cake feed?

[daddystoots]

Thank you...it's been so long I'd estimate it at about 40

Thanks you so so much! I will definitely give that a try. Is the buttercream great under fondant?

[daddystoots]

I would assume so, it's very stable and tastes delicous. I've only done 1 cake completely covered in fondant, and that was 2 years ago...the icing help up great.

Hi! What tin did you use for the top of the hat, and also can you remember what size pan you used for the bottom of the hat?

This cake is so awesome! I'm hoping to make one just like it in two weeks for my husbands fiesta party. Can you tell me is the buttercream frosting tinted to make the tan color? and if the other bright colored decorations from buttercream as well?

That is wonderful. So.. im trying to make this cake tommrorow.. any tips on how to cut the indentation on the base? how far did you cut it in the middle? and is that wax paper you used to smooth out the frosting??
