Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Women

Style: Romantic, Classic, Victorian / Steampunk


Materials

glutenfree HD vanilla sponge filled with chocolate-creme covered in SMBC. man, I wish I would have watched that class again before making it. again tossed in some of the butter too cold. funny little yellow dots all over ;-(

What was your inspiration?

the cake itself needs no inspiration. vanilla combined with chocolate is just a "plain old" classic ;-) design: last week I was in London and bought Peggy Porschen's new book. recipes - mmhhh, fleur de lis on a buttercreamed cake: very nice.

What are you most proud of?

that I delivered the cake without messing it up. it was sooo heavily raining that day. super humid day.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

watch JJ Russel's buttercream class BEFORE. especially his hints how to create a super smooth cream and finish!

yes - as I wrote under the caption "inspiration" ;-) but I guess fleur de lis is even older than PP ;-) even older than buttercream cake decoration ;-)
