my 40th birthday cake

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Advanced Fondant Techniques »

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Women

Style: Funky


Materials

lemon sponge cake, chocolate and peppermint, red velvet, orange and almond (gluten free), sugarpaste and modelling paste

What was your inspiration?

I was inspired by Marina Sousa course. I am a beginner in cake decorating (I open my first supgarpaste packet on 18th March 2012) but I am totally in love with this sugar fantasy world!! I should probably start with something simpler and with standard shapes...but Marina Sousa make things looking great in a very simple way....Of course my cakes decorating skills have a lot to improve...but I hope one day to take some classes with Marina ...and you never know...

What are you most proud of?

I am not afraid to try creating what I have in mind.... hopefully one day it will turn out exactly how I had pictured...

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Work out you cake sizes before start baking! Probably someone with more experience knows this very well....

Thank you. The idea came on the spot, because I was not sure on how to color them. But after the first one....I love them too, so I done a selection of purple and gold and fucsia and gold. Glad you like them.
