Raindrops and Roses Cake

This was my first fondant cake that I did in my cake decorating class. My design was inspired by the fact that I was missing the Washington rain, so I tried to make it look as though rain drops were falling on my cake. It was a chocolate cake with buttercream filling and a homemade fondant recipe.

The skills this cake features are fondant roses, inlays, and a twisted fondant rope.
