Romantic Wedding Cake
This is the cake I that started me on my new cake decorating journey 5 months ago. I tried to cover it with fondant but the kitchen was so hot that day my fondand never worked :( Even my royal icing was melting so I had to decorate at the reception site. The lights were dimmed so I couldn't get a really nice picture. bummer! The cake was much better looking in real life. All flowers are sugar paste, some of the little filler flowers and the ones I used on the borders were handpulled. Mission accomplished!
The flowers are great. Good Job!
very beautiful
I'm glad I'm not the only one with heat problems. It was 110 here yesterday (seriously) and I have NO AC (swampcooler). So my frosting doesn't crust and while I got the mmf to work eventually... it was a chore! GREAT JOB.
I feel your pain, alicegop! I wasted an entire day trying to get my fondant to work. I finally had to give up and covered it with buttercream. I had to do my royal icing borders twice because the first borders just melted like icecream! Didn't know that's possible! I had to make another quick batch of royal icing then rushed the stacked cake to the reception site to finish my work. Once in a cooled room everything went well. I learned to always expect the unexpected from this cake :)
It turned out BEAUTIFIL!!!!! :)
Simply gorgeous. One question though - did you use a styrofoam ball to put the flowers in on the top of the cake, or is that a rounded cake there as well?
I used a little ball of fondant attached to a 4 inch card board.
The flowers are great. Good Job!
