Graduation Cake


I made this cake for my sister in law. She played tennis at Florida State University, a Seminole to be proud of!
I used a fondant / gumpaste mix to make the graduation cap, scroll, and tennis racquet. The tennis balls are made from a mold using melted chocolate. I tented the chocolate using gel food colors.
By mixing gold luster dust and garnet food coloring with clear vanilla, I was able to add finishing touches of garnet and gold.
