Mambo Jumbo

Mambo Jumbo

A group of cake decorators, from around the world, collaborated together in the past months to bring you these 29 sugar creations, from the elegance of the Venice Carnival to the vibrant carnival of South America.
Carnival is a 5 day festival, which occurs immediately before Lent, and is celebrated in different countries, with carnival food, floats, lots of colors, masks, costumes…It can be elegant. It can be satirical. It can be colorful.

I am excited to be part of this collaboration.

My cake is called “Mambo Jumbo” and is based on the inspiration board I was given. I took the colors and turned them mostly into edible sequins and glitters to design the top and middle tier. Sugar flowers and wafer paper foliage were used to decorate around the mask. Sugar pearls were wrapped around the extended tier for a different look, ending the bottom last tier with my all time favourite, ruffles! I enjoyed so much creating this carnival piece and it was a fun collaboration with so many sugar artists to bring you all these colourful carnival!
