Wedding Cake


This Wedding cake came with a challenge, the Bride did not want to have the cake tiers covered in rolled fondant but instead wanted a buttercream coating. I firstly made a template for each tier and sketched out the design, then using plastic strips to sit over the design I hand rolled each piece of Black fondant to match the design. When I completed one section I placed it on the cake, I had to make sure that the design was pushed securely into the buttercream to avoid it slipping. Weather is very hot here in South Florida so it always offers a challenge to keep the design in place. The Roses and Rose petals were made out of Red gumpaste  and added a good contrast of color to the cake.
