Black Theme Birthday Party = Tuxedo Cake

A customer Mr. Haycarl asked me to make a cake for his birthday that is black themed. Immediately I suggested a fondant Tuxedo cake. He gave me the license to choose the cake flavor and at first I decided to make a triple flavor marble cake; vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. And then I was going to layer it with chocolate ganache and strawberry Swiss meringue buttercream. I think this would have made a great cake. But at the last minute I changed my mind and decided to go with my Red Velvet instead which I can be sure will be a big hit and it did.

Below is Mr. Haycarl's birthday cake.
