AI am making a small 8" fruit cake for a gentleman turning 80. No particular hobbies so a bit stumped for ideas re decoration. The decoration will be fondant over marzipan. Any thoughts welcome. Many thanks
And it doesn't have to be that big, I know you're doing a small cake, it was just the colours and pattern that caught my eye. It's something I'd make for my dad.
ALove the striped one - will give this some thought. Many Thanks Nadiaa and everyone for your suggestions - gets the old gray matter going thank goodness
When my Dad turned 80 I did a knight attacking a dragon (my avatar) on a pile of gold with a scroll saying, 'From the Mists of Time, Sir Charles, A legend in the Making'. ( I needed to allude to how awsome he is but also how ancient he is getting, whilst still allowing him to get even older and even better). I put an 80 on the knight's shield.
