Pink & White Orchids
This was a small wedding of 30 guests, so I just did an 8" and 11". We priced the fresh orchids...oh my $$$...so we just went with these artificial flowers. I was really happy with how real they looked and the bride was relieved at the price!
How did you get your icing so smooth?!! LOOKS AMAZING!!
Thanks. My "secret" I guess is really warm buttercream and a sturdy turntable. I use the largest plastic scraper I can find too. My coworker even uses a plastering tool for her cakes. It's nice and sturdy and never warps.
Love the cake. The icing looks perfect.
Just perfect. Are you willing to give out your buttercream recipe?
Certainly! It's the Italian Meringue buttercream in the recipes section of the Martha Stewart website.
Wow, you get your cakes smoother than Martha herself! (Yes, I've actually zoomed in on some she made on her website!) Still learning with the IMBC though.
Beautiful cake--where did you get the faux orchids?
Very pretty! Your icing is perfectly smooth!
Beautiful.....your border is so perfect! I think between your cakes and cookies maybe I need to come take private lessons from you!
I would teach anyone who was willing to learn...but I'm really still learning myself! Thanks!!
Great job!!
Wonderful Job and the cake is very pretty as well as the decors on cake.
i love it it is soo beautiful
Beautiful and perfect! Very smooth icing! Great work!
Very pretty!
Very pretty! The orchids do look real!!
Wow!! Smoother than Martha's? I'd like that on a t-shirt!!! The flowers are just from a local florist shop. They came on a "stick" of about 10 orchids for $15.00
