Hi Sweetcakes,

Sue Tickle made the cake and she made the ring for the cake out of gumpaste and let it dry. In the top of the ring she made a hole so that the diamond could placed on the gumpaste band and act as a bridge supporting the diamond.

Hope This Helps,

Thanks Dominic.
I have found a glass diamond to use this time around but would like to make it next time out of sugar. I will have to look through your directions to see how to make a mold, guessing it would be similar to making the bottle where the mold would have to be split down the middle in order to get it truly 3d. Dont you think?
