I read this book to my girls at least once a week! I love this cake, you did an amazing job bringing the story to life!

I LOVE this. One of my favorite aspects is that you used the rose leaf plunger/ cutter to create such fabulous and effective leaves on the tree. That tier would make a gorgeous cake, presented by itself!

12 hours, icingontop. It was a cake for my godson so happy to put the extra hours in. Can't see it being commercially viable though, unless the parents are super rich!
