Christmas Holly (Brush Embroidery) And Pine Cake
This was our family holiday cake. White almond sour cream cake with BC icing. The holly leaves were done in brush embroidery and the pine was just piped on. I forgot the center vein detail on the holly but they'll not know and it will be gobbled up just the same. :) I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!
This is gorgeous. you did a wonderful job on this. ....to beautiful to eat!
WOW that is stunning, looks perfect. I can only dream one day to get my BC that smooth!!!! Merry christmas to you & yours.
I used the foam roller tech (melvirna method ?) to get the BC smooth... I love it!!!

Just an update on this cake.... (One I'm very proud of!) Taste of Home Magazine will be featuring it in their Dec/Jan 2008 Issue. The WAS recipe and all the How To's will be featured. They did a different filling but they made the cake and photo'ed it and everything. It;'s part of their holiday dessert issue. Just thought I'd share. Enjoy!!
It is a fabulous design & beautifully done.
Absolutely beautiful!!! It really looks like a cake that you would see in a magazine!! Wonderful work and into my favs this one goes!!! :wink:
It is truly lovely!
Such a pretty cake-very neat and elegant! Sounds SO yummy, too! I can't wait for my December/January TOH issue!!! I get to tell all my friends that I "know" a celebrity now!!!
I love this cake and was going to try to do something like it for my family christmas party. What kind of/size brush do you use for your embroidery? And what consistency of buttercream did you use for the holly leaves and the darker green leaves? Thanks!
I just saw your cake in TOH this month! I was so excited because I knew it was from CC. lol You did a great job! Congrats on the TOH article!
Just beautiful! Went right into my favorites :)
You did an outstanding job. I love everything about it.
Thanks! I was so thrilled to have it featured in TOH, They had one sort of misprint/mis-whatever you want to call it. I did this cake after Wilton Course II not after 2 classes. Oh well. :) Thanks again!!
Beautiful :D , fantastic job and I'm sure they all love it.
