1950s Dior Couture Wedding Cake

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Unisex

Style: Retro / Vintage, Classic


What was your inspiration?

Adapted from a similar design by Wendy Kromer. I doubled the tier heights, changed the bows, and changed the stripe colour. Hers was inspired by Dior couture of the 1950s.

What are you most proud of?

The patience it took to hand-paint all those stripes.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Stick some music on, find a comfortable seat and get painting. You'll be there a while!!
