Japanese Quince - Bonsai - Gardens Of The World Cake Collaboration on Cake Central

Happy to share with all of you the cake I created for this amazing collaboration. Gardens of the World is a "Chelsea Flower Show" Inspired International cake collaboration featuring 26 outstanding, award winning and celebrated cake artists from all over the world. Our common theme was "Gardens of the World" We have created sugar art celebrating the beauty of English, French, Italian, Japanese and Spanish Gardens. Japonica (Japanese Quince) This is my cake. I was inspired by the beautiful Japanese Quince, a native tree from the Japanese Garden that has been cultivated into a Bonsai, The red flowers are so vibrant and contrast beautifully against the rustic bark of the tree. Also I was impressed by Japanese Basket Art- The texture is so mesmerizing. I recreated this technique with fondant. I hope you like it!
