I had fun modeling leeks, Cauliflowers and pumpkins as well as watering cans and flower pots! The cake was a rich chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream encased in a chocolate ganache and covered with fondant. A cake which makes you smile!

This was a vanilla sponge with luscious homemade strawberry jam and rich vanilla buttercream covered in fondant with hand modelled figures. Peppa pig had invited her friends George Pig, Whinnie the Pooh and Heffalump out for a picnic on top of a flower meadow hill. What fun!

Wedding Cake

roses wedding cake        I was thrilled to be asked to make this wedding cake. With over 50 handmade and edible roses in burgundy and ivory, the gold pattern also matches the brides sari. The three tier main cake was a mix of chocolate and vanilla ganached sponge with buttercream and homemade strawberry jam. There was also a separate eggless vanilla sponge, which was also decorated with handmade roses.

I was so pleased to be able to attend a class to learn how to make peony flowers from sugarpaste. I was thrilled with the results and can’t wait to use these skills in the future.
