Marzipan Forest Cake (From Martha Stewart Weddings)
I have been looking forward to this cake order for months! I had never used marzipan to sculpt before, but it was so easy! It tints really quickly, shapes well, keeps it's form beautifully and dries semi-hard overnight. I will definitely be using it all the time now for my decorating.
The only thing I changed was instead of making the mushroom stems from fragile sticks of gumpaste, I used toothpicks soaked in coffee then dried out. Easy!
This cake was from last year's Martha Weddings magazine issue.
STUNNING!

OH MY GOSH!! I am in LOVE with the lady bug!! This cake is just charming!!
Yes, those ladybugs are my favourite! The bride asked for 4 of them on the cake, one on each tier...she said they signify good fortune?
Fantastic job!!! Just lovely.

What can I say except Love it...Love it... Love it! :)
Very pretty!
Wow!
Absolutely gorgeous! I've been browsing through your cakes gallery every single one of them amazes me!
Great job!!! You should be proud - it came out fantastic! Another idea for doing mushrooms (if you're interested) is out of meringue. The tops and stems are piped separate, dried in the oven and "glued" together w/melted chocolate. Dust them w/cocoa. Plus, they taste great!
Thanks heavenlycakes!!
Excellent!-- A very creative and well-decorated cake.
Very pretty cake. I love the lady bugs too!!
