Laissez Les Bon Anniversaires Rouler! (Let the Happy Birthdays Roll)

Today was my Mother In Law Linda's birthday observance party. (number undisclosed) Since her birthday falls close to Mardi gras this year she wanted to have a Mardi gras themed cake. This was one of my favorite cakes that I've made. Everything but the feather was edible. The mask, I made out of modeling chocolate and handpainted it with luster dust. The doubloons were embossed with a real doubloon and airbushed gold. The fleur-de-lis were cast in a mold.  Few minor meltdowns were had, though supergenius factor was running high.


The fillings were mango and pineapple.
