Embroidered Flowers
This is a 12, 9, and 6 in. rd cake done in bc. I have never done brushed embroidery before so this was a first for me. I really made a huge mistake by petal dusting the centers, what a mess, next time I will just color some RI and put it in the middle. Ribbon done in fondant, Roses made from gumpaste. TFL
that cake is really really pretty, you did it really well.
Beautiful!
Pretty, pretty cake. Love the delicatily coloured flowers and the matching gumpaste roses. Really nice job!
What an exquisite cake! I love it! I can't believe it's buttercream--I would have sworn it was fondant.

Stunning!! :)

wow! 8O you did an awesome job! you should be VERY proud of yourself.
Thank you so much, these are lovely comments:) SueB and smoore, I did the brushed embroidery by doing an outline in royal and brushing it in, then I added the petal dust, but my mistake was dry brushing it on instead of mixing it with vodka or lemon extract. So then I had to go back over in white royal and brush one more time inward. Hope this helps:)
You did an astonishing job on this. I don't see where you missed up at. The cake is perfect. :D :wink:

THis is a beautiful cake, so elegant...I might try this...one day...far from now... :lol: I dont think I can do this! congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :wink:
I'm sure it looks difficult, but once you get started it is pretty easy, thanks for the comment:)
Really Beautiful.
:lol: Gorgeous cake helipops!! I cannot for the life of me get bc completely smooth, and you can almost always see where the cake has been filled it always bulges. Any advice would be very appreciated!!
thanks, xxxtina, the only thing I recommend with the bulging is to make sure you make a dam of thick icing on each layer when you fill so that the softer icing doesn't come out. I use a thick icing on the outside to, so the thinner icing doesn't push through. Some people fill the cakes the day before and let them rest, so the next day you can scrape of any excess icing around the edges before you ice the cake.
This cake is so beautiful.What buttercream recipe did you use?
Thanks, I use the wilton recipe.
