I really enjoyed making this strawberry cakes with buttercream fillng covered with fondant. All decorations are also fondant. This was for a 2 years old girl. I think the colors pop very well!
The cardboard is a scrapbooking paper glued on a cardboard. That is the way I make all my cardboard. I think it is fabulous because it always match the cake! :roll:
For the green I used a mix of two colors in Spectrum gel food color brand: Electric green and avocado to achieve this green that is just like my cardboard. I do not have any quantity or recipe. I puit drops until I reach the color I want to match my cardboard.
This is very lovely. I adore the board. After you put the scrapbook paper on, do you cover it with plastic wrap, or just set the cake directly on it? Thanks.
I am happy that you like my design! lilysmom, I put icing and fondant on my cake than I put the cake on the board and decorate. This way, I am sure there is not dirty spot on my paper.
