This was for my sister's 40th birthday back in October. Her husband was throwing her a surprise party and requested something with a "death" theme since she was turning 40 and the house was already decorated for Halloween. The cake was red velvet with Bavarian cream filling and chocolate Italian meringue buttercream. The flowers are gumpaste and the gravestone is covered in fondant. At the last minute I added yarn hair to a skull I found in the Halloween section at the store and placed it on top. This was such a fun cake to make!
Here's one of my sister with my oldest daughter.
