I have an order for a Victorian Cake. I know what Victorian kinda includes but I do not know how to transfer it to a cake. Any Help?

Can you explain a little more please. Do you mean a victoria sponge cake or a cake decorated in victorian style?

Ok, I am needing a Victorian theme cake. For me, Victorian time was a time of embelished items. Everything had flowers and lace and big hats! I googled victorian items and that is basically what I found and I do not know how to put that to a cake without it looking like a cake with roses. Is that better?

How about a heart shape with roses and cornelli lace? I have the Sylvia Weinstock book and this cake came to mind......http://archives.cnn.com/2000/FOOD/news/02/09/sylvia.weinstock/

There was a cute cake in the Purple Contest with a hat (and some other things-maybe gloves?) on it. You might want to look at that for some inspiration.

What I would do is decorate it with a lot of Lace appliques..and tiny roses. and the inside would be any flavor. I would think that this question is more on the LOOK than flavor..

I did a cake that I thought was pretty victorian. I used Ivory buttercream to frost with and also to decorate with. I had a rose stencil that I marked on the sides and then piped in the outline. I then put on some peach roses and pale green leaves in groups around the border. Stuck a big fondant bow on top since the customer was wanting a package cake. It was so easy yet looked so elegant. I will post the picture if I can find it.

I have a victorian cake if you would like to get ideas from it, actually I think its the one so kindly mentioned above... it should be in my "photos"... or you can check my website www.cakesbysuzy.com .

Good luck!

Thank you everyone.

Kitagirl- I actually have your cake saved in my photos, I'm just not sure if my talent is there yet with fondant. I haven't had any luck and the instructor in our area is not too efficient with it either!

yh9080- I love the cake! I think I can do that.

I just finished my first victorian cake, you can find it in my album, and i used wilton's pattern press set, and piped over it with royal icing. I m gonna try to upload the photo it didn't work before.
