This Mad Hatter Birthday Cake was very time consuming, but fun to decorate. It was also my very first time working with fondant. The usual mad-hatter cakes have three tiers, but this one only has two- one 10’inch and one 8’inch for the bottom layer, and one 8’inch and one 6’inch for the top layer. I looked at a great tutorial on youtube and it worked out!
I cut out stars with a fondant cutter and put them on the end of toothpicks and stuck them in the cake. Since it was my first time working with fondant, I placed stars over the places the fondant didn’t look smooth. I also took two long pieces of fondant and braided them to wrap around a tier. I wrote the name and numbers in red tinted gel.
