Hello everyone, found this lovely cake and would like to make a cradle similar to the one on this cake for my daughters babys christening. Can someone help on how this was done....I am attaching the pic of the cake. Thanks

Hi,

I just took a class on how to make a baby buggy and the structure was similar to this one. The bottom of the cradle was done in the same shape but with foam. You can use any medium you choose to mold this shape. the shape is sort like a half circle stood upright but thick of course. Just be sure that whatever you choose to use, you have to support the weight at the bottom.The top of the cradle was made out of 3 seperate pieces of floral wire, cut to size to bend and fit from side to side of the structure. Then top was covered/draped with fondant in one piece. You would have to make a small base to support the bottom of your cradle, then add the undercarrige and wheels.

In this pic, it looks like there is a round plate/board that the xradle is sitting on and the surrounded by the beautiful flowers.

HTH

Thanks a lot, will try, but in the meantime, would appreciate more details, ideas on how to do this cradle from the experts here on this site. Thanks & have a nice day

Hope this helps:
