Thank you Michal and Benni!
Not only is it beautiful but I’m sure it tastes awesome. I absolutely love the lemon pound cake especially with raspberry filling.
Me too, Goreti. I think it has to be my all time favorite of go-to cakes. I had never even tried it before until my niece requested it as one of her wedding cake flavors. Once I tried it I was hooked!!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this cake Linda! Your buttons are beautiful, and I bet they took quite awhile to make. I am in love with the billow weave, and am hoping to try it on my grandson’s baptism cake. Did you use a stamp on the little name card? The writing and flowers are perfect! Your monthly cake giveaway is so nice. I’ll bet everyone looks forward to it!

Toni, that little plaque was not my idea. I got it from Shirley Wilson on Cakes We Bake. Here is how she/I made it: the feet to the stand and the oval are gum paste. Then, we both just pick a font that we like and print it right onto card stock so that it will fit the oval. Cut out the card stock, place it over the gum paste (no one is going to eat the plaque anyway) and then add gum paste pearls to hold the card board onto the oval. Let both pieces dry hard as a brick and then using gum paste glue, glue the feet to the oval. There is also one pice in the back that helps it stand like an easel. The feet were made using a piece of decorative craft wood found in the wood section at Hobby Lobby ($.99) and then I made a mold out of it. Shirley uses these kinds of plaques for a lot of her cakes, and I couldn’t wait to try it out. So, to answer your question about the stamp; no, I typed my favorite font and then printed it on card stock. =O)
Congratulations on being Editor’s Choice, and currently #1!!

Thank you Jennifer. It is one technique that I do love to do. It’s just not that hard, and any flaws on the fondant under it are all covered up! YAY!
