Materials

Fondant, royal icing, buttercream, diamond impression mat, purple Wilton gel

What was your inspiration?

I love modern cake art. I'm new to cake decorating and it was my parents 18th year anniversary. I wanted to use what I learned in class to try and make a cute small personal cake.

What are you most proud of?

I'm glad that I took the modern piping class. It gave me a little more confidence to branch out from doing small cake decor like basic piping with buttercream to being a little more relaxed with decorating and being free with my creative/artsy side and combining it with cake decorating.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I forgot to add more sugar once I added the purple gel color to the royal icing. I would definitely say add more sugar as instructed to that the royal isn't loose.
