This cake I have done at college as part of my ABC Level 3 Cake Decoration. I am nearing the end of the second year level 3 and this is for the Royal Icing unit. The criteria was to use Royal Icing run out panels, pressure piping and painting. The icing is coloured with Ivory dust colour and the pressure piped birds are painted with brown and champagne dust colour. The cake is actually two four inch round polystyrene cake dummies coated with Ivory Royal Icing.
I am quite pleased with how it turned out, my only issue is that I wished I hadn’t chosen the wild bird species, it is a bit sad to see a Robin in a cage !!
