This was a birthday cake for my sweet friend Estelle. She requested dark chocolate cake with cream cheese icing. I covered the 4-layer cake with homemade fondant. I colored the fondant gold and cut out the diamond shapes to go around the sides. Each diamond was hand-painted with gold dust! For the fleur-de-lis and black accents, I started with chocolate fondant and added food coloring. I carefully traced and cut out the pattern, attaching everything to the cake with icing.It was quite yummy and a big hit at the party! Best of all, the birthday girl (an avid Saints fan and true Cajun) loved it!
