I was very lucky recently to have been asked to make a wedding cake for a lovely couple that wanted an amazing 11 tiers, we decided that the cake should be made from mostly dummies, ranging from a 24in round tier at the bottom to a 4in tier at the top, with the 5th tier up being a 16in fruit cake that they were able to cut for photo’s, all of the tiers were covered with couture sugarpaste and then painted with a metallic pearl lustre by Karen’s and decorated with Clare Bowman’s Eternity and Tiffany cake lace, with the help from another cake maker we created over 600 sugar flowers and it took me around 4hrs to assembled everything at the venue.
After the event I broke down the cake and took it back to be reassembled and displayed at the couples business venue.
I also created 6 cutting cakes, 300 mini cupcake favors and a macaroon tree for them… I’m so proud of this cake and amazed that it all went so smoothly….yay!!
