The Dress

This cake was made for the Fall Fashion Issue of Cake Central Magazine. It was such an honor to be asked, and to be included! The lady is sculpted out of modeling chocolate. This was only my second time sculpting in chocolate. The ruffles, rose "cameos", frames, jewelry, lace on the gown, etc., are fondant and/or gum paste. Her chocolate gown is covered in colored gourmet sugar crystals. The lace imprinted on the round cake and the bodice of her gown was made using antique, hand-tatted lace.
