Watch Vivian Pham's 2011 OSSAS Cake Competition Made from Start to Finish

vivianpham2011-ossas-cake-video

This cake took over 350 hours to make. This was the first competition I entered in, and I believe it’s the best one out there. It is hosted by Kerry Vincent in Tulsa, Oklahoma every year. This cake was made out of fondant and gumpaste. I hope everyone can enjoy it. =)

I was able to watch it... but it was moving so fast it gave me a headache! I'd think they could slow it down a little even if it has to be split into 2 or 3 videos... didn't get much out of it...

Completely inspiring! It's great to see what can be accomplished without moulds! All that freehand placement of decorations, and the skill.....Vivian is an artistic genius!

I didn't make this video for instructional purposes, I made it as a documentation to inspire and to show people the tedious work that involves making wedding cakes like these. I wish I could have slowed it down, but 350 hours of work condense into 17 minutes is more practical to see in one video than multiple videos that would be 30 minutes.

Such a beautiful cake and a daunting amount of work! Good for her! To see what she is able to do with just a few simple cutters is amazing! I would have thought a cake like this would need hundreds of premade molds or something in order to get all the ornate details. Does anyone know is the cake covered in silver leaf?

Thank you! No I did not use any silver leaf. I used silver/ gold highlighter dust mixed with Gin (painted it on and airbrushed some parts)

The silver looks amazing... well, the whole cake is amazing! I didn't realize you were actually commenting! Thanks for a response. :) Now, is this something that just sort of developed as you worked on it, or had you planned everything out?
