How It Would Be Made
Start with baking two moist chocolate or vanilla cake layers, depending on your flavor preference. Once cooled, cover each layer with a smooth coat of pastel green fondant. Stack the layers with support rods for stability.
To create the flowers, use fondant in various colors, cutting out petal shapes and assembling them with edible glue to form flowers.
Use a ball tool to shape the petals for added realism. For the leaves, roll out green fondant and cut them into leaf shapes, using a veining tool for texture. Arrange the flowers and leaves artistically around the cake, starting from the bottom upwards.
Craft the fondant bird using a mold or by hand, ensuring smooth lines and a polished finish. Add tiny details like a beak and eyes using edible paints or fondant accents. Secure the bird on the top of the cake with a small amount of edible glue.
