ROUND TIFFANY CAKE

by LISA ROSALES
(CORONA,CA.)

This round tiffany cake is made with two tiers of white cake with strawberries in the center.

You will create 2 tiers, one a 10" tier, the other a 7" inch tier. Frost both tiers in buttercream frosting and then stack them.

Create a white gum paste bow and allow it to dry. Using a 50/50 combination of gum paste and fondant, create the white ribbon around the middle of the cake. In the front of the cake, you will affix the bow over this ribbon.

The top of the cake incorporates a fake tiffany wedding ring that you can order online. Surrounding the ring are pieces of tissue paper made from a combination of gum paste and fondant. (Just create squares and then fold them up to resemble pieces of tissue paper. When dry, attach to the cake with piping gel or icing).

Finish the cake by piping a border around the bottom, middle and top tier in blue buttercream icing.
