Tiffany Lamp!

I'm home alone again this weekend, which have turned into my personal baking retreats. This weekend I wanted to replicate a Tiffany lamp cake I've seen done my Maggie Austin cakes in DC. I baked a 4 layer red velvet cake, then stacked the layers with buttercream. I carved them into a lampshade shape, then dirty iced and covered it in fondant. I mixed luster dust with vodka and used that to paint the stained glass pieces. I used some old black buttercream I had mixed up in the fridge to out line the pieces, then put a white knob on top and put a dot border around the bottom. The border and knob would have looked better in black I think, next time!
Tiffany Lamp Cake!


Overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!
