Your cakes are always perfect!! What beautiful work, you can tell they're a labor of love. :)

Aaaww, thanks, that's a nice thing to say.

I love your cake. Very elegant.

Shirley - just a vision of elegance in your cakes. I love the way those swags drape so nicely without effort. (I think we should have a "sighhh" icon)

Thank you. The difference in the two types of meringue icing is the way in which they are prepared. SMBC the egg whites are heated with the sugar, IMBC the sugar is cooked to a syrup and then beaten into the stiff egg whites.

Thank you Daisy :)

Oh, these are just so perfect! I bet they absolutely loved this cake. So much class and elegance.

Thank you. Yes, they really did love their cake.

How sweet GI, I am glad you liked it.
