Mothers Day Tea
This cake is a 5 layer yellow with half lemon & half chocolate buttercream filling The cake is iced with buttercream. The ribbon is fondant, and the tea cup and saucer on top is gumpaste. The inspiration came from here. This was my first time ever using gumpaste. It was a joy!
very nice! Great job!
Good job on the brush embroidery and painting the gumpaste. Nice cake.
I love the cup!! Looks so real! and the colors, I like the green/pink look
How did you get the cup and saucer to look so perfect? I've had so much trouble with them!
Thanks...For the saucer, I rolled out my gumpaste, I used an actual cup & saucer dusted with cornstarch as a mold, then let it sit for about a day to dry. Then, I made the handle and let it dry.
Lovely, you did an awesome job!
Great cake....the cup and saucer came out really good!
What a lovely cake! I love the tea cup and saucer!
