My First Wedding

My First Wedding on Cake Central

This was my first edding cake and my first attempt at flowers. The bride saw the cake here and asked me to recreate it with her chosen flowers. There were some dimples in the icing - which i managed to smooth out (only after the photo was taken) but what drama for my first wedding.....Badly behaved fondant, temperamental air brush and then the cake threatened to fall over in the car!!! What fun!

Yes Kylie, it was your cake that she saw. Did you ever get to make the real thing? Please tell me how you get such wonderful sharp edges on your cakes, mine always look much more rounded. Thanks for the inspiration.
