Zebra Gift Cake with Hot Pink Bow

This is an 8" 2-layer square cake decorated in buttercream icing with black fondant zebra stripes and a hot pink fondant bow.  The bow was made several days in advance to allow time to dry.    I added the curling ribbon to the bow to help hide the candy that tends to squeeze out when the loops are put together.  It also adds a touch of fun and realism to the cake. Directions for making a similar bow can be found at http://cakeboss.com/FondantBowTutorial.aspx.
