Flowery Cake

I made this one for a co-worker at the office. I again got an image of a cake and they wanted something similar. For this one, I knew I would be making little flowers and I didn't want to do them all with icing. I found a nesting set of flower cookie cutters which were perfect for what I needed. There were three, but I only used the two smaller ones.

The cake is covered with marshmallow fondant with fondant flowers covering the surface. Some of them are flowers within flowers of different colors. To give it an indention in the middle and make the flowers cup a bit, I pushed on the middle with a rounded tool I have for that purpose. The border around the bottom is not piped icing. It is made from little beads of rolled fondant. The name was painted right on the surface of the cake with dye for a drastic color effect.
