Pretty cake. I don't think I could cut into it. Congratulations to the graduate. :thumbup:
|
wow, beautiful! you do nice work!
|
Beautiful!!!!! I wished my hands would allow me to
do this kind of work. Old Arthur has a way of stopping you from doing the things you love. |
I say you qualify for the "professional" level. I've seen less creative and not as pretty cakes on the Food Network made by professionals. Way to go!!

A most gorgeous cake. Thanks for sharing you talents and what a wonderful time to share with the family.
|
Lisa, I am so impressed with everything you do, seems to me that all you touch turns to gold - your efforts here are stunning..one of your fans I remain!! Congradulations to your graduate!!!
|
That is as beautiful as any quilt. And probably just as much work.
|
It is so pretty and I love it, bet she did too! :D

First you have to have someone print them out for you on a special eatable art printer that used food coloring instead of ink. I went to my local Fred Myer store and the ladies in the bakery do it for me they charge $8 a page. Then you have to cut out the photos the size you want then to be. Roll out gum past to a pretty thin sheet. Carefully get the gum past wet just where you will put the photo down this will adhere it to the gum past. Then I use my ravioli cuter to cut around the photo. Then I put it on a cookie sheet that I have powdered with cornstarch and powdered sugar (I mix this together 1 to 1 and put it in a new nee-hi) to dry. You have to wait a day or to two before you do the next step because it has to be dry. Now I use a #3 round tip and pipe a snail trail of royal icing around the edge this make the frame. Now you have to wait a day for that to dry. The last step it to use gold (or any color you want) luster dust and mix it with vodka to make a paint. Just paint it on the frame and let it dry. I always do the photos about a week before the cake I normally do them when I do the followers because all that needs to dry. I just glued then to the fondant with leftover royal icing. If anyone need additional help and wants to make these then can just PM me and I could call you if you need more help. |
That is so cute! Hopefully it was gently eaten..... :D
