Say, you hate covering in fondant. Say, you hate smoothering even more. Say, you always manage to get a fingernail, thumb or elbow imprint in your cake somewhere. Or two. Say, a bride comes up to you, and sais: You know what would be brilliant? If you make my wedding cake, one of those ***y naked ones! With some ruffles on the bottom, and some flowers on top, and absolutely nothing in between. With a double barrel. And sharp edges of course. And oh, it's gonna be in the middle of the room, so it can't have a 'backside'. Then any selfrespecting non-smoothering kinda girl would say: bridezilla, take a hike and do it yourself! So I said: bridezilla, take a hike and do it yourself! You crazy woman! That's me. I even added something tot that response. I'm a daredevil like that. So the bride (and also friend/colleque/competition) said: hell no! I'm freaking out even thinking about that! You do it! So then you're screwed.... Waking up in cold sweats at night. Stressed out during the day. I was miserable. Because I hate covering in fondant. So it had to be perfect in the first go. On a day when there was a weather alarm code red, and my brains melted out through my ears. But: I think I did it! I'm thrilled! And very relieved! Response of my husband: so THIS is what you were fussing about?? There is hardly any decoration! Sigh....
I LOVE doilies! They’re not much around in the Netherlands though, which is a shame. I would eat, sleep and breathe doilies of I could… So for my own birthday cake, it wasn’t very hard to decide: a handpiped royal icing doilie it is! With a peach peony, my favorite flower! Hope you guys like it…
I LOVE Peter Rabbit, it's my favorite bedtime story! I was so excited tot turn the most thrilling moment of the book into cake, hope you guys like it too! Peter's made of modeling chocolate.
For a baby shower, I made this double barrel. Care to guess if it's gonna be a boy or girl? ;)
Peach double barrel with sugar peonies and handpiped Royal Icing lace. I had a hard time deciding which composition I liked the best, what do you guys think?
I love poppies, and I love a field of poppies even more! So as an hommage to the poppies in my garden and a desperate reach for spring (Could we please skip winter this year?) I painted a sunny field of poppies, and made some sugar poppies to match.
I love lilies, and I love them in white, so chique... But this time I decided to make them cheerfully pink! The rest of the cake is handpainted.
I made this wedding cake for my dear friend, it was my first one! I had lots of fun making the orchids, and lots of nerves when delivering the cake... ;-)
