My mother-in-laws 50 birthday cake...

I know all of my friends will never believe that I made this cake but I did, with the help of my friend Leslie. This was her second time and my first. It was very easy to do but very time consuming. From start to finish we probably spent 13-14 hours. It is all real cake too. (about 7 cake mixes)It was so much fun to do. We even made our own edible fondant. We learned how to make this cake by watching cake shows like "the challenge" and online step by step movies. In the end it turned out perfect and it even held together and tasted great. We were so proud of ourselves! And believe me if I can make this cake anyone can!
