Snake Cake

My niece was having her 11th birthday party at a nature center and requested I make her a snake cake. For this cake I made a 3 tier cake 9 inch, 8 inch and 6 inch round. Each layer is a different flavor for variety. Butter cream icing in leaf green on the cake and base of the display. Then I rolled fondant in ropes of various lengths to make the snakes making the mama snake around the cake a little thicker with cut triangles for a design. I used piped dark green icing to make the grass on the side of each layer and leaves around the baby snakes. Then I gave each snake eyes and cut a small piece of fruit roll up for the tongue of the mama snake.
