What is the best way to do ferns on a cake. I have a Bride who showed me a picture with fern and accorns on it. (not too pretty) What is the technique if I use butter cream? Is there another way?
Bet she got that picture from the Martha Stewart Wedding book.
I would experiment with brush embroidery. It can be done on buttercream.
Thanks. She got the idea from a wedding mag. I have the MS book. Will have to look and see if its the same picture. Ive never done brush embroidery. Is it easy?
Brush embroidery is not difficult. You may want to practice a little. I think it gives a very elegant look to cakes.
Basicly you outline your pattern, then with a damp brush "pull" the outline in. You need to be careful not to disturb the outside of the outline.
never mind I found them on the web. Your cakes are beautiful.

Thank you. The cake that the lady wants is a martha stewart.
there's a fern cake pic i would like to show, but how do i attach pic under my post? im not a comp wizard, so, pls, make it simple and easy. thnk u.
To attach a picture to a reply, all you do is type in whatever your reply is. Then scroll down to where it says add attachment, click there. All you do from there is type in where your pictures are saved (mine is my pictures) click on the one you want to attach then click open. (If the picture is too large it will prompt you to resize it.) If it's not too large it should upload it to your post.
If you need resizing instructions let me know.
Hope this helps.
ok..that sounds easy..will try out. thnk u.
ok, now..i cant copy the cake pic, doesnt allow me. its ok, but this is the link
