Ribbons And Roses

Ribbons And Roses on Cake Central

Did this cake for a bride who was refered to me over The Knot. Gotta love the Internet! She had seen a similar cake that she wanted me to copy. I was pretty pleased with how close it came for the frosting. The roses were all hand made with small gumpaste pearls added in. The back had a line of hand-made gumpaste pearls running from the top to the bottom.

Thank you - I did the ribbon effect around the cake by using the flat side of a large basketweave tip. I put marks around the cake to keep the lines level then overlapped them slightly to give the shingle type effect.

Beautiful job!! No wonder the Knot called on you. Thanks for explaining how you did it , I would not have guessed.

Beautiful work! Can you post the back view? It looks really pretty in the reflection. I want them both in my favorites.

I would, but unfortunately with the mirror there, I couldn't get around behind it to take the picture! the only way I got a shot of the back side was with the reflection.
