martha's petal shaped cake

this bride wanted a copy of petal shaped cake from martha stewart's webpage.  only the colors in reversed.  martha's cake was covered with brown fondant and covered with white and light brown dots.  originally the bride asked for only brown dots.  when i started to pipe all the dots in brown it didn't look right.  so i took matters into my own hands and decided to do 2 different colors for depth, just like the martha's cake.  this cake really hurt my hand, each dot was piped on.  also, petal shaped cakes are hard to mask and coat. i tried my best. another problem was that from the picture i didn't know what was piped on top.  i saw the star take form and i left it that way.  i thought it was cute and hoped the bride had a cake topper is she didn't like it.
