Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Designer Handbag Cakes »

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Home

Style: Funky


Materials

cake, fondant, gum paste, buttercream

What was your inspiration?

Elisa Strauss was such an inspiration! Her realistic cakes are unbelievable!

What are you most proud of?

There were so many new skills i had to learn for this cake. Piecing fondant, sculpting a cake, painting with gels and powders, using wires in gum paste for the handles, and more... But when it all came together I couldn't believe that I actually made it myself!!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Set aside a lot of time, and be patient. Its all worth it in the end!!
