Flowers And Stitching
This was my first attempt with the "stitching" method. This cake was made for a lady who loves to stitch and although she was 92 years old, still continued with this love. The plaque was made with chocopan and painted with a luster-dust and vodka mixture. The plaque was soft enough to cut through without all the cracking. The "Nanu" name and stitch was first made with running sugar, then when dried I used royal icing with a medium thickness to create the "stitching" effect over the name.
Oh that is beautiful! Wish I knew how to do that! :wink:
Amazing it really looks like stitching!
Exquisite! I've been wanting to try the stitching ever since I saw it in a Toba Garrett book - I only hope mine comes out half as beautifully as yours!!!
It is so pretty. You did a fantastic job.
That's a beautiful cake! The stitching is cool but everything else about it is great also. I love your borders, the colors are great, and the plaque on top with the flowers is immaculate.

Just gorgeous; I love the plaque, you really did a wonderful job on it. The borders are lovely... I know she must have been thrilled~!
