Hi - could you please look at the attached cake photo sent to me by a bride - she wants me to make the cake have this lace pattern on it (all credit for the cake going to Amy Beck cake design) -- The bride found it on Pinterest. I have been searching for a lace pattern to match this with no luck. Can anyone tell me if this is a fondant mold or some type of cutter?? Any help would be appreciated! icon_smile.gif

I believe it is individual flowers and leaves cut out, applied to the fondant "undercoat," and connected with piped royal icing.

I hope I die before "your" is the official contraction of "you are."

I think in the Contemporary Cake Bible by Lindy Smith, there's this technique. She cuts the pieces with a cutter, glues them to the cake forming a pattern, then joins the pieces with royal icing.

Glad I found this thread before posting the question myself.  I've seen these exact shapes on other cakes (probably inspired by the now-famous cake pictured above) so I assume they're probably sold in a set.  Does anyone know where to buy this set or who makes it?  Thanks!
