Cricket Themed Fathers Day Cake



Well its Fathers Day tomorrow, and who doesn't like cake. This time went for a simple sponge cake with a generous layer of buttercream and raspberry jam, encased in icing and then set on a decorated board. The board is also layered with sugarpaste and then painted with shades of green for grassy effect.
This cake is intended for my husband, and Father to my beautiful girls and he is very much a cricket fan!

Vintage Style Wedding Cake



Vintage Style Wedding Cake


As summers starts to peep its head in, Wedding Season begins! This time I thought I would try a Vintage style Wedding Cake which would be appropriate with lacy bridal wear or those wanting a more Vintage look than your average plain white Wedding cakes.



 
Photo of top detail, technique is  brushed embroidery. Buttercream icing is piped on in flower shape, then use flat paintbrush is used to give a slight textured finish.
