Red Velvet "Dia de los Muertos" Cake

When I was a junior in high school, I spent two weeks in a Spanish language immersion program. While my language skills definitely improved, the aspect that stuck with me even more so was my love for the Mexican culture. Obsession is an often overused term, but it's fair to say that I'm obsessed with all things "Dia de los Muertos," to the point that when I purchased this cake mold, the only thing I wanted to do was decorate the skull with a traditional pattern. I simply used a red velvet cake mix with features done in royal icing, but I also love the idea of trying out fondant for the first time.
