Coolest Polka Dot and Zebra Print Birthday Cake 11

Homemade Polka Dot and Zebra Print Birthday Cake
My daughter completely designed her Polka Dot and Zebra Print Birthday Cake. By all means she wanted a green and black zebra print cake with polka dots.
We made a 3 tier cake with dowels inserted at each level for support. The bottom tier was 10 inches and was white cake with a chocolate filling. The 7 inch center tier was chocolate cake with chocolate filling. The top tier measured 4 inches and was white cake with a cream cheese filling.
The cake mixes were all store bought. The entire cake was covered with a homemade buttercream icing then fondant was used for accents. The fondant was a buttercream recipe that was found online. The zebra stripes were cut free hand with a pizza cutter and the circles were cut with a circle fondant cutter. My husband constructed the stainless steel "E" at work, then I covered it with stick-on jewels for a little sparkle.
