It looks so cute I was going to do one with fondant roses on the top

Yeah I wanted to do more but they changed the design at the last minute and wanted to have her name on it so I went with just one and some butterflies.

Hey ladies I've only just discovered this part of the forum and may I say WOW ur all amazing cake makers and decorators,I've spent two days so far going through the pages and I'm only just beginning.anyway since I was young I wanted to start making and decorating cakes but never had the time or money to do so but when everyone was asking me what I wanted for Christmas I thought nows the time to say everything cake wise I do have a couple of questions about what I want to add on my list tho if u don't mind......I want to start with cupcakes but also do the odd big cake...

Firstly apart from obvious things I want I was thinking of...

Flower blossom cutters - do these make those gorgeous flowers alot of u have?
I've asked for all the sugarflair paste colours
what would u use lustre spray/powder for? Food pens? Edible liquid?

Sorry for all the questions but I just want everything so hopefully one day I can b half as good as u ladies xx

We've got a Christmas Cake Competition happening at work tomorrow so I thought I'd give it ago after I'd had this idea..

Pretty pleased with it, as I've never really done anything like this before lol.. but dead simple (as you'll guess) but very time consuming!

Hi ladies, amazing cakes as usual!
Just thought I'd post pics of a tangled cake I did for Serens bday.
Tbh my interest in baking is dwindling at the moment because I've had a couple of nightmares! The tangled cake I did the night before and I had a tough time with the basics, the fondant was tearing so bad I ended up having to cover it up with a second layer of fondant, and patch it up with buttercream making the cake look a bit of a mess. I finished the cake at 1am and I was so tired I attempted to move it with the tower on it, bad move, tower collapsed and I spent the next 3 hrs fixing the cake, and ended up with a wonky tower. Nightmare!!!! Seren loved it though which is the main thing!
