My latest work, a piano cake :)
I used mdf boards and dowels to make the base, stacked and cut the cake, ganached it as smooth as possible, covered the top first, scored the lines, airbrushed, then covered the rest piece by piece. I made the keys early on so they were already firm when.placed on the cake.
The shine is made with confectioners glaze. Musicsheet is edible paper.
The lid is a thin foamboard covered in very thin gumpaste

Love making 3D realistic looking cakes <3

Amazing. Even though you have kindly told us how you achieved this, I’m certain that not many of us could! :-)

Thank you all <3 so sweet!
Julia, it just needs a lot of patience ;) and practise, I am not that great in straight smooth edges, so this was a great challenge for me too!
