This cake was a single-tier wedding cake.  I was asked to do quite a simple design, with a few pink roses.  I did a nice pearly finish on the white icing and after hand-making all the pink roses, I painted the edges of them gold for a more elegant look.  The piped writing was done in pink, and then painted over in edible gold paint.  There are also 2 handmade sugar wedding rings – so they’re all edible, or can be taken off the cake and kept afterwards to dry out in a cardboard box.

The cake itself is chocolate sponge with vanilla buttercream filling, covered with white chocolate ganache and sugarpaste.
