Jewel Tone Wedding Cake

This cake was based on an all round tier version that we found had seen. The silver and grey matched the brides colors and I love the dramatic look. I used fondant to make the larger “pearls” and added different sized silver dragees. I painted the fondant pearls with shimmering pearl and silver dust (Wilton Pearl Dust, Silver-0.05 Ounce (1,4g).) To get the darker metallic silver I tinted the fondant grey first. To learn to make fondant for these pearls look under “Tricks of the Trade” or go HERE.
