Category: Food & Cooking
Type of item: Food
For: Women
Style: Outdoorsy, Mod, Funky, Cute, Casual
Materials
Rich chocolate cake, royal icing, fondant. I hand painted the Mad Hatter and other characters around the cake...everything is edible including the Caterpillar smoking his hooka.
What was your inspiration?
Request was for an Alice in Wonderland cake with an accent on the Mad Hatter...this is what I came up for.
What are you most proud of?
I didn't want to make the cake look childish as it was for a young lady celebrating her 17th birthday....I think I achieved that. The most thing am proud of is hand painting the Mad Hatter however forgot is white eye lashes....
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
It helps if you have some painting skills...the rest of the design is just thinking outside the box.....having some idea of what you are going to do before you start....I never do though...I flim flam my way through most of my cake designs and if I plan anything except for making the components ahead of time it never ends up the way I expect it to go....
