My gorgeous sister-in-law Mel and her lovely bloke Nev are getting married next August and they have asked me to do their wedding cake! I've got a pretty free reign, which is quite exciting, but Mel has said that she likes the idea of cupcakes or minature cakes. I've been starting to experiment...
The minature cakes are chocolate with a buttercream frosting and then covered in fondant icing coloured with pink colouring (the colour is slightly different than in the photo). I made the rose from white fondant icing and added some glitter!
Here are some lemon drizzle cupcakes decorated with pink cream cheese frosting piped like a rose and then sprinkled with some glitter (it's all about the glitter!). I just used plain cupcake cases as they were lying around but I think they would look better if they had a solid colour so will have a hunt for some prettier ones.
I showed my little experiments to Mel and Nev and they seemed to really like them but I'm not convinced that we are there yet. I'll get to it drawing a few more designs and making some more examples to make sure they have an amazing wedding cake!
These look fab. Can you post a tutorial showing how to do the rose frosting technique please?
ReplyDeleteYes please post a tutorial! Those cakes really mix and match well.
