Under the Tuscan Sun

I had a family reunion this weekend. Our theme this year was "Travis in Tuscany". I've been dying to try my hand at a topsy turvey cake, and I am quite pleased with my Tuscan Topsy Turvey!
I used Piruettes cookies to make the "fence". The bottom tier was chocolate, filled with peanutbutter and a layer of chocolate buttercream. The top tier was white chocolate with raspberry filling and a layer of cream cheese buttercream. It was a hit!

I also tried my hand at decorating sugar cookies with royal icing. They were so fun to make, turned out awesome and were of course, DELICIOUS!
