A very traditional Anniversary cake done for my daughter's teacher, whose parents were celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary. They are a very religious family and wanted a reading from the bible included. Not being a church goer, this was a daunting task, also, not having any experiece piping with royal icing and I was nervous to say the least.

Wow, this is a beautiful cake. How did you write in gold? Did you pipe that in royal? It looks almost flat in the picture like it's a pen.

It's all piped and then painted with edible gold paint and a very fine paintbrush. Thanks

ellyrae, you're very kind, but it looks much better in the photo than in person. My piping skills leave a lot to be desired, I'm just a beginner, but thank you so much for the lovely compliments :)
