Chinese New Year Dragon

This weekend we did a cake for a Chinese New Year party, and it is the year of the rabbit!

Lourdes designed an awesome fondant-covered dragon that curled around the top of the cake, and his tail spilled over onto the glass riser. Since it was a black-tie affair, both Mr- Drago and his bunny friend sported bow ties for the evening. Too cute!

The cake alternated red velvet and classic butter cake to tie in the colors of the evening; both were flavored with mixed berry simple syrup.  The fondant and buttercream were vanilla, which created a beautiful slice.

Too bad I'm a sheep.  I guess it's not my year... baaaa :)
