Birthday Pot Plant Cake
Shamelessly copied from the lovely Tracy (sweet treacle) with her permission!
See original here... www.flickr.com/photos/tracys_cakes/3392965645/in/photostr...
Pot had to be "aged" to cover the many mistakes - luckily this is for Mum and she will love it anyway!
2 tall 8" cakes - vanilla with summerfruits (nectarines, peaches, pears, plums, raspberries) folded through - sandwiched with a generous layer of lemon-lime and raspberry buttercream, covered in dark choc ganache and then decorated in fondant. Flowers and ladybug are non-edible.
