Winnie the Pooh Theme - 1st Birthday Cake

One of my close girlfriend’s son was turning 1 and she asked me to build her a Winnie the Pooh cake for her son's brithday. She wanted a tall, 3 tier cake and here is want I baked for the party: 

• (bottom tier) a 12 inch round rich chocolate cake with chocolate filling, covered with yellow-orange and red marshmallow fondant (Pooh’s colors) and tree blossoms;
• (middle tier) a 6 inch square carrot cake that is an “ABC” block with the letter “D” for the birthday boy’s initials, filled with vanilla cream cheese buttercream, covered with baby blue and yellow marshmallow fondant; and,
• (top tier) a 6 inch round red velvet cake flavored with cream cheese buttercream, that is shaped like a honey pot with honey drippingfrom the side of the pot (used fondant, of course).

For the decorating pieces, I hand-made Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, honey bees, and butterflies from fondant/gumpaste. As for the number “1,” that was made from gumpaste. All-in-all the cake was fabulous and my girlfriend and her family loved the taste of it.
