My son's second wedding cake, for two of his friends a week or so ago.

He's learning how multi-layers can "bulge" if there's too much frosting/filling...

...between layers. Also, he is learning why some recipes call for a stiffer frosting between layers.

Vegan, gluten free cake, as requested. (He also made several sheet cakes that were not vegan, etc.) All in all, it was well received.

I love the textured look to the frosting. My house has lots of white, in the furniture, and carpet

the lady who helped us with our remodels said if you have a lot of white, you need lots of texture in your fabric. I've loved my choices for years now. I have marveled at the smooth frosting many cakes have and wondered how they do it, but the texture is so much more interesting to me. That cake is beautiful!

 
It's funny you mentioned that, Karen. The bride and groom wanted the texture to...

...resemble a plaster wall.

He played with it for awhile and got pretty close, I think.
