This cake is inspired by Look 23 from the Ralph & Russo Spring/Summer 2016 Couture Collection – such a gorgeous dress to work from! I also took inspiration from the Pantone Colours of the Year – rose quartz and serenity blue.

The rather extravagant peony seemed the perfect flower to harmonize with this dress, with its ruffly petals mirroring the organic curves of the flounces. It is surrounded by metallic blue leaves with a gold iridescence (which is sadly difficult to capture on camera!).

It was such an honour and a thrill to have my cake featured in Cake Central Magazine! You can get your copy of Volume 7 Issue 4 here: http://cake.ly/2eoYP9b
