It's Mothers' Day in the UK, so I've made these cupcakes for my mother-in-law. Almond sponge, filled with a cherry jam, and topped with cherrybakewell flavoured buttercream and a fondant topper.
A madeira sponge filled with homemade lemon curd and lemon buttercream, covered in fondant. Airbrushed ombre effect with gold cake lace, and a peacock topper following the YouTube tutorial by Zoe's Fancy Cakes. A couple of things I'd do differently next time, but I'm generally pleased with it.
I don't do buttercream usually, but wanted to have a go at using Russian tips. I don't think the buttercream was the right consistency, but I was reasonably pleased with how these turned out. The cakes were a rose flavoured sponge, with a rose flavoured buttercream. I made these for my colleagues for Valentines' day.
Gumpaste flowers. Getting better!
A gluten-free sponge, filled with white chocolate ganache buttercream and raspberry jam, covered with white chocolate ganache and fondant. This was my first attempt at airbrushing, and I'm fairly happy with it. The numbers on the top are clumsy though!
