I Learned / Embroidered flowers and Lace

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Modern Piping »

Difficulty:

Category: Food & Cooking

Type of item: Food

For: Unisex

Style: Traditional, Classic, Romantic


Materials

All decorations are piped buttercream. I used an artist brush to give the flowers the embroidered effect.

What are you most proud of?

The piping and brush embroidery on this cake took many hours but I think it was worth the effort.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Joshua's Modern Piping class is great and offers many tips and much knowledge!

I used piping gel to outline the flower pattern to give me an outline to go by. After the design was transferred onto the cake I piped with buttercream.

The flowers are silk. The bride and groom were on a tight budget so they did not want me to make flowers for them.
