I made this cake in black and white to mirror the old wedding photos, I wasn’t entirely sure if it would work but I think it was a success in the end! :-) This was carved fruitcake 9by5inch and so the figures are only just over an inch tall. Walls are fondant pressed into a brick pattern sheet over marzipan, all details are GP/long dried fondant…. The uneven roof is entirely intentional (ha ha ha – not!).

Super super fun cake which took me back to being very iccle! :0) Everything is covered in modelling choc with a few GP pieces like fence posts and chimneys. I managed not to use any inedible supports so really chuffed!

Well For This One I Had To Combine The Grooms Desire For A 3D Scale Model Of His Deep Sea Divers Helmet With The Brides Desire For Simple I
Well for this one I had to combine the grooms desire for a 3D scale-model of his deep-sea-divers helmet with the bride’s desire for simple Ivory & Silver… The actual helmet is bright yellow and black but I think this was a good compromise- not too OTT :-)

This Is My First Attempt At Flowers Im Pretty Pleased With The Cake As A Whole Dirt Is Homemade Choc Cookies And A Little Yellow Cake
This is my first attempt at flowers, I’m pretty pleased with the cake as a whole :-) Dirt is homemade choc cookies and a little yellow cake blitzed together. For the cake club thread: I struggled with petal thickness, I wanted thinner petals so I made an array of thicknesses but the thin ones all fell off their wires when dry (24 guage paper covered dipped in gum trag sugar glue) so I had to use the fat ones although that kinda works for orchids so I was lucky! Also the stem wasn’t how I wanted it; it’s a central dowel with each flower’s twist of wires twisted onto it which gives it an overall spiral effect- I tried to soften that with green modelling choc then florists tape. Oh one last tip- Assemble a test flower before mass producing all your petals!!! I used up all my GP then after they had dried I did a test assemble and found the three narrow petals were too long and had to trim them, they glare at me every time I see the pics!! pfffff

25 Years Married
This was a great fun little 8x4 inch sofa cake. Since the figures would make up such a big part of a slice I used 100% modelling choc so that they tasted good :) The story is that Dad falls asleep eating his peanuts and the dog waits by the chair to lick the salt off his fingers when his arm flops down!

Cats N Dogs Silhouette Tiers
This is my 4th wedding cake (still practicing on willing friends), my first with basic white tiers... Neatness is tough when you can't hide behind the detail! A little bulging of filling but as a result I read about dams on CC so now for some more practice! Lots of animals as they run a fostering charity, the tree came from their invitation and the topper was designed to look like a silhouette from any angle since the cake was to be in the middle of the room. As a tip for cutting detailed shapes in modelling choc: roll it thin then transfer to a stone cutting board thats been in the freezer- it stops the stretching as you cut (a tile would work too).
