Meet Faye Cahill and start class by learning Faye's shortcut for covering flawless double-barrel cakes. Then put impression mats to work to make an eye-catching, double-diamond design. You'll even add silver leaf for a polished effect.
Use thin strips to create fondant piping for a lovely lattice texture and smooth arches. Then add stunning silver beading and master pressure piping for delicate details.
Turn your attention to appliqué as you create the top tier of your cake, complete with gold-painted laurel wreaths and crochet fondant rope. Plus make a pomander topper and individually wired and hand-formed ruffles.
Learn how to hand paint your fondant with luster dust for an all-over shimmer. Then add dimension with royal icing stencils. And finish your cake with repeating and freeform appliqué designs.
Work with flexible lace next. Learn how to cut and apply lace to your cake and add a rustic whitewash finish. You'll also work with appliqué again to add borders and dotted details.
Finally, expand your piping skills with the thick and thin lines of a leaf fan. Faye shows you how to make a brush-embroidery flower and how to pipe on top of stenciling for a corded lace effect you'll love.
