Sarah's Birthday Cake

I made this with help from Missy Mathews. The design of the cake was Missy's idea. I made the cake, another buttermilk cake with strawberry filling. It was a tall cake with each tier being made of three layers of cake. The top tier was a 6-inch round and the bottom was a 10-inch. I frosted it with my own buttercream. Missy did the rest, she made the blossoms out of royal icing and the branch out of colored fondant. We decided that next time we could make a branch out of tootsie rolls, it would taste much better! Please ignore the big bulge on the side of the cake where the strawberry filling is trying to push it's way out (whoops!).
