Those cakes are beautiful! Since I'm not an avid fan of frosting, those partial naked layers really
appeal to me. However, I have always thought that cakes encased in buttercream helped to keep the layers fresh by sealing them away from air. Do you think these exposed cake layers would dry out & go stale faster? Opinions, please. Maybe my basic premise that I've always assumed to be true is nothing more than an urban legend! TIA and thanks for posting this MariaDNoCA!

So beautiful, and I am especially drawn to this type of style, looks so intricate
Plus, I love the ombre look to it.

wigs, I wondered the same thing, but w/o detail work, these could be constructed
closer to delivery date. Usually, the whole fondant/crusted royal icing over soaked cake that has been sealed first with almond paste is to ensure the cake can be decorated over a period of days--and still stay fresh. These just need a good dollop of icing between the layers and decorations. No detailed piping, etc.
They are gorgeous!
