I got to do a really fun cake for a big fundraiser this week with a St. Patrick's Day theme. It was also the BIGGEST cake I've ever made in one tier. It has 6 16" layers of cake, all split and filled with Bailey's buttercream, so the cake itself is about 13-14" tall. The feet and hat on top were carved out of rice krispie treats (leg, anyone?) and covered in fondant. Overall, I'm guessing the thing weighed around 100 lbs -- enough that I could barely slide it on the table but wouldn't even try to lift it!
This is another wedding cake I did that was getting lots of attention for its odd -- almost gothic -- color combo. It also has sugar diamonds all around the bottom of each tier.
