HOW DO I ASSEMBLE A CAKE THAT LOOKS LIKE A PARTIALLY OPENED BASKET WITH FLOWERS FALLING OUT. THE CAKE MAN HAS ONE PICTURED IN THE WEDDING GALLERY IT IS PHOTO NUMBER 208

IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEAS PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO EMAIL THE CAKE MAN AND SEE IF I HEAR BACK FROM HIM.

THANKS A MILLION
HEATHER

Hi. For our second level wilton class we made a basket looking cake. We used an oval baking pan and did the basket weave on the sides all the way around and then had flowers on the top and some on the sides. I am not sure if I am expalining it well but here is a site that has a picuture of the weave on the sides to give you an idea. http://www.wilton.com/recipes/recipesandprojects/bridalshower/budding.cfm
Like I said we made ours out of oval shaped pan it looked like a basket ( at least in my opnion ) lol
Hope that helps
