My cousin turned 16 and her mom was taking her to New York City for the weekend to watch "The Phantom of the Opera". She asked me to do a cake that would be used to reveal the surprise. I made the mask out of fondant and covered the 2 tier chocolate pound cake with white fondant. I then used black fondant to make a cape to go down the back of the cake and to make beads to go around the top layer. I used it also to make a city scape of NYC to go around the bottom. I finished it off with a real red rose.

What to do with extra icing
When I have extra icing, I hate to throw it away. Most of the time, it's a little of this and a little of that, so it's crazy to save it. So, sometimes I let my kids decorate something for them. On this particular day, I drew the bear, and they filled it in. It was a good lesson for my 7, 5, and 3 year old on how to hold the bag so that icing didn't come out of the top. It was very memorable afternoon with my sweethearts!
