Makers Mark Cake

This cake is one that just makes you want to pour a glass of whiskey, doesn't it?!!? ;) (at least that's what I wanted to do while sculpting it) Kidding! No I'm not. Totally serious. Carving cakes makes my head spin sometimes. But it all worked out and in my opinion turned into a pretty cool cake. :))

Made for a rehearsal dinner, the bride wanted to surprise her groom with a Maker's Mark bottle cake.  It needed to serve 70 so I set the bottle on top of a 3 layer 10 inch round barrel cake.  Both cakes were filled w/ butter cream, then iced in a thin layer of butter cream, then another good layer of chocolate ganache, then covered w/ chocolate fondant and last but not least, topped off w/ red candy melts for the "wax" or whatever that Makers Mark bottle stuff is. lol  

How yummy was this cake???  Goodness gracious!  Did I make your mouth water at all??  ;)))

Oh, and I used my edible printer and icing sheets for the bottle label. Love that printer! :)
