Petals for a Princess




Bottom and second tier are fruit... and the top is medeira.

I marzipaned and iced with roll out fondant icing in ivory. I then arranged the spots and pearled them with edible dust. Arranging and pinning a double ribbon - the wider one is ivory and the pink is opaque to match the bridesmaids dress. I made the candles myself as i could not get any shop bought in the correct colour pink and without being scented - so i bought tea lights, removed the wick, melted the wax disk in a pan and then poured into the little glasses waited till slightly cooled then popped the wick in and then topped up with more wax and left to cool. Flower topper is silk as are the petals which i arranged arround cake... and then sprinkled with eddible pink glitter to finish. This cake was for my Sister... so my heart and sole went into it... with many sleepless nights worrying.... as this is only the second wedding cake i have done and i never went to school to learn how... so it is a big task when you just make cakes for fun.... It was a success i am happy to report... and my sisters tears when she saw it were of joy thank goodness! Phew!

This cake turned out beautiful! I loved the idea of the tea light candles! I will have to remember that unique idea! I, too, had many sleepless nights before I designed and made my own daughter's chocolate granache wedding cake! Congrats on a wonderful cake!
