White and Gold Wedding cake

This Wedding cake had plenty of small gumpaste flowers that I painted in a Gold accent. I liked the way they seemed to cascade delicately around the sides of each tier. The 3 large gumpaste flowers I decided to just accent in the middle by painting the stamens Gold. I had to just tie a thin Gold ribbon around the base of each tier and I think the cake displayed quite an overall regal look.

Chanel purse/handbag

Another cake order for the Chanel purse/handbag. This time I did a few more details with the chain straps so they look like they are actually attached to the bag this time.
I think I will add this as an upcoming class, seems to be popular at the moment.

Baking this week Oatmeal cookies

Oatmeal and raisin cookies are always a delicious treat. The recipe I made this week is one I have not used for a long time and I must say they came out perfect. They held their shape during baking and were not too thin and crispy, they were still a little chewy in the middle, with that lovely hint of cinnamon when you bite into them. The walnuts gave a great added bonus of both flavour and texture. Simply delicious!

Simple elegant style Wedding cake

I got my inspiration for this cake from a textured fabric I saw , I liked how even though the design was White on White, the little flower discs I made added a great detail and overall look of pure simple elegance.
