Wedding Cake 'Michelle'

Wedding Cake 'Michelle'
Unfortunately, the florist hadn't arrived at the venue when we delivered the cake, so the only photos I have are without the fresh flower topper. :o( I'm sure the bride will get a good pic and let me have a copy, though! 6" lemon sponge with lemon curd buttercream; 9" rich fruit cake; 12" lemon sponge with lemon curd buttercream. All covered with marzipan and sugarpaste and decorated with brush embroidery roses, painted with pearl lustre.

Japanese Symbol Tattoo Cake


Japanese Tattoo Cake
The customer ordered this cake for her boyfriend, who owns a tattoo shop. He was given a Japanese name by a Japanese tattoo master. A friend of theirs (also Japanese - but neither the customer or the boyfriend are) who works in the tattoo shop is staying with them, so she asked him to draw a design. He drew the outline and then she came round and, armed with my boys' colouring pencils, we decided on colours. I have to say that I haven't enjoyed doing a cake this much for a long, long time. I know it's simple (for those of you who aren't cake-makers, never confuse 'simple' with 'easy'!), but I LOVE how it's turned out.
