White Square Engagement Cake With Skull Outline
This was requested by a friend, an Engagement Cake with a skull outline which I copied from their Engagement Invitation. This is my first attempt at piping like this. The cake was really challenging, won't bore you with the details, but in the end the couple were happy with the result, mind you I have no hair left. The cake is a 12" square white chocolate mud cake with white cocolate icing. The skull outline is piped Royal Icing and highlighted with lustre dust.. Skulls are significant in many parts of South America I believe. This couple were engaged whilst in a Bridal Party in Mexico, which is why they wanted a skull outline on their cake. Thanks for looking

50Th Birthday Cake
This is chocolate mud cake with choloate ganache covered with rolled fondant. The bottom quilted tier is 8" and the top 6". I have never quited before and do have a qilting embosser, but found when I practiced that I could not get the lines to match. In the end I found a video on You Tube practiced on a dummy and eventually did it manually and was pleased with the end result. I think more practice with the quilting embosser is required. Thanks for looking
