Flying Carpet Cake
I'm not sure what I was thinking with this cake. Just a practice cake. It came out sort of looking like a flying carpet so that's what I called it! The top tier was too large and actually hung off the sides a little so next time I would do the sizes differently when rotating tiers on top of each other.
I think it looks wonderful. The stringwork is so neat and straight. It's just beautiful.
i love it. it's so different from most cakes, very elegant.
yummy looking!
Wow! I love this...don't know what u were thinking?!?! C'mon, it's great!!
I really like the design on the cake, wonderful
I think it looks GREAT! I really like the design on this cake too. It is different. How did you do the stringwork so perfectly?
I think it looks really nice
I love the border going down the corners. It's very elegant!
Thanks everyone! I really didn't have any idea in mind when I started this cake. I was trying out a new cake and filling recipe and had some leftover frosting that I added red to. Didn't quite make the red color. Not sure what color it was when I started. I think the corners came about because I didn't like how the top of the stringwork (just freehanded) ended so I put the shell on each corner of the diamond and then they sort of multiplied!
I think this would be a great cake for a guy. It is always hard to find something that would be good for a guy that is not a sports cake. I agree the top tier could be a little smaller but otherwise I really like it.
I just think the top is really a neat idea - going into my favorites :)
