This bride wanted a picnic type fun cake, with sunflowers. It is a carrot cake (which was interesting to make into a whimsical cake..I ground the nuts up a little finer so I could cut easier) The sunflowers I used Nicholas Lodges new cutters..I highly recommend his Sunflower dvd. You will need about three days to make them (mainly for drying times) but they are VERY easy! The petal cutters are one piece now and the leaves use a silcon veiner. (its a kit you buy) I sprayed everything with edible shelac.
