This has been a week of birthday cakes. I have had 3 due in little less than a week. Not that I am complaining mind you. I have enjoyed the rush immensely!
The purse is a firm butter vanilla cake with simple vanilla buttercream under the fondant.
It was for a Sweet Sixteen party, can you tell :) I was told that the teen was so tickled that she saved the plaque part with her name.

Here is a closeup of the gumpaste handle. To form the handle I let it dry over a Moose's Tooth growler.

Another Angle.

Well back to work. One more cake due on Thursday. Then out to dinner for my birthday!
