"Nurse Cake" - 10/10

I was asked to do a cake for a retired nurse for her birthday and found several great design ideas on Cake Central.  This design was by far my favorite!  I love all the little elements and had a lot of fun making them.  The cake is classic french vanilla with vanilla buttercream filling (with added raspberry preserves in the top tier).  Both tiers are covered in mmf with all fondant decorations except for the "heart beat" around the bottom tier which is buttercream.  Also, the syringe needle is a small piece of floral wire.  The only thing I would have done differently is made the bottom tier bigger so I could have fit the stethoscope on it better.

  4. This is ABSOLUTELY phenomenal. As a nursing student who graduates in a couple days, this cake is simply perfect.
