Vintage Butterfly Cake


I made this cake last week for a lovely lady who was celebrating her fortieth birthday.  


She wanted a pretty cake but not too pink.  So I open my Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady for inspiration and gave the cake a vintage feel.


 On a separate note if you fancy winning some vouchers for CSN like I did here have a look at Me Old China.

  2. This is so pretty, your hand painting is always so gorgeous and I am in awe of your talent.

    If you mix in a little tylose or cmc to your fondant it should be strong enough to stand on its own. Just add some little sticks before it sets hard and then you could paint your gorgeous flowers on both sides of the numbers.
