Gotta love the decorative combination of red roses and chocolate covered strawberries on chocolate fondant.

This deviation has earned a spotlight in my journal! The theme for this spotlight was Valentine's Day/Love/Hearts. You can find it here as well as in this news article. Congratulations!

Is that pearly icing piped around the edges?? :wow:

The velety folds of the chocolate sugarpaste draped across the ultra-smooth surfaces looks amazing. :drool:

Congrats on being featured! :claps:

Dud3. Plan.

I set all this cardboard on fire. You make for the trap door and I'll dive through the window.
One of us might survive.

Thanks for the congrats! The icing on the edges is chocolate buttercream (chocolate, egg whites, butter, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla), piped on with a round tip to make the pearl shape. The chocolate fondant is pretty awesome; it tastes a bit like tootsie rolls, but with more chocolate.

It's a pretty style of cake. The drapping is very romantic. Did you add texture to it too? It's lovely.
You pipped the border with chocolate buttercream? I think perhaps the brightness is a bit too contrasting since the the rest is so dark looking. I would have used a thickened dark chocolate ganache to pipe it instead. I think it would just add the texture of your border and give it separation without making it such a sudden cut in the dark appearence of the cake.
May I ask, if you bought the chocolate fondant, or did you just mix it that way by adding cocoa powder or other flavorings?
