This is my first attempt at airbrushing a cake. The cake was an 8" fruit cake that I cut into 4 then stacked 3 on top of each other to form the shape before marzipanning and covering with sugarpaste. The roof was white icing that I airbrushed grey then added the tile effect - although you cannot see it on the picture, I then airbrushed the sides of the birdbox. The woodpeckers were made following the instruction in Frances McNaughtons new book - 20 to make Sugar Birds. Loads of quick and easy birds to make in there - well 20 in fact. The book is available from http://www.franklysweet.co.uk/shop.php at a fab price of only ?4.99 plus P&P

I made this for a mini cake competition. Everything bar the cake board is made from fondant and edible. The mini cakes were marzipanned before wrapping with fondant. I had some helpful comments from the judges, namely the marzipan/fondant were too thick on the cakes.
