Cake Practice and my new favorite book

So a few weeks ago i pre- ordered simply spectacular cakes by Peggy Porschen and it came right before mothers day i was so excited ive wanted this book for awhile.

I pretty much loved everything inside, It's got amazing cakes,cookies,cupcakes ect.

Well since mothers day was coming up and i needed to practice my cake covering skills with fondant i figured id kill 2 birds with one stone. I took inspiration from her mini cameo cakes and changed the design and color around so heres my version.

I know its not that great but something about smoothing the fondant isn't my friend lol.I couldn't find to many pics from her book but here are 2 beautiful cakes i want the black and white one its perfect !

If your into the pastry arts as i like to call them you should go get this book!
