Crown Cake

An idea for an orange and white cake.
Sweet, with a bit of citrus and a little zest on the icing.

This design is for a miniature cake I plan on making out of polymer clay. The inside of this is going to look a lot like an orange cake- white cake flavored with orange and colored a pale orange. The outside will be covered in orang fondant and there will be white drapes around each tier of the cake.

White mini pearls will line the outer edges of the layers and there will be mock orange and orange blossoms cascading down from the top. The cake is crowned with a tiny golden crown, sporting the same white pearls at the points.

I will be scenting the clay with the scent "Orange Juice Cake" from justscents.com.

The cake will be made at 1:12 scale, 4.7 cm tall.
-The base layer will be 2.1 cm wide and 1.3 cm tall.
-The second layer will be 1.9 cm wide and 1.05 cm tall.
-The third layer will be 1.7 cm wide and 0.8 cm tall.
-The fourth layer will be 1.5 cm wide and 0.7 cm tall.
-The crown will be 1.05 cm wide and 0.6 cm tall.
