The bride brought me the invitation last Thursday and decided she wanted that type of work done. My husband took it to our local cake supply store and they said that it would be a lot of work for me to do. That I would have to pipe it then use a paint brush to spread it out. I can't figure out how to add a picture to this. I keep getting a download error and am getting frustrated.

It's hard to explain. I tried to download the photo in my photos. It said that it down loaded but I haven't seen it yet. I still can't seem to download the picture.

It sounds like brush embroidery to me. Its not so much hard, as that its tedious & can be time consuming. You have to be careful & take your time. In the end, it is SO beautiful. I plan on doing a alyer of my daughter's quince cake with brush embroidery.

If the bakery explained it right, it's brush embroidery. It's not hard, but as LaBellaFlor said, it's time consuming.
