Hi Everyone, sorry haven't updated my blog for a while. Hope you all doing fine!!!! Here are the cakes I did last few weeks.

THE GHOST CAKE.

PINK WEDDING CAKE.

Here is a wedding cake that I did at the begining of this month . They wanted Fuchsia colour and I am really pleased with the end result. Hope you like it too!!

Here is a closeup of the flower sprays.

Shoe and Handbag Cake!

This was a fun cake to do. But I wasn't sure about making the handbag at the beginning. But at the end I made it with pastillage.

Here is how I made the handbag!

First I made a template like on the picture below. This is my first ever template I did by myself. I wasn't sure whether its going to work or not.

Then I rolled the pastillage to 1/4" thickness and cut the shapes out. You need two each from the shapes no.1 and 2. I put them on a board and left it in the airing cupboard to dry. Here is a photo of the dried cutouts.

Put them together with royal icing. If there is any space between them, fill them with royal icing, and leave it to dry. Once its completely dry, measure the top of the bag and cut a piece of pastillage according that measurements. Let it dry and again attach it with some royal icing.

Then either using sugarpaste or flowerpaste cut the shapes out using the templates and glue them with sugarglue. Make sure you start sticking it from the top and work it down to release any airbubbles. Here is a photo to see.

Then I use the Jem strip cutter to make the handle. Once I've cut the strip, I shpaed it to look like the handle and left it to dry. When its dried, covered it with sugarapaste and left it to dry again.

Then I used FMM shield cutter to make flap of the bad. But you can use anything you fancy. Glue it to the top with a little bit of sugarglue. Once you have done that, you can attach the handle with sugarglue or royal icing. Then I covered the edges by using strips of sugarpaste. But you can use your sugar/clay gun do that.

And here is the end product & hope you like it.

Number 1 and a Hobby cake!

This Hobby cake was a joy to make! I really loved making it. It was for a Gent's 90th b'day. His hoobies were Pheasent shooting, Golf, Tennis, Snooker, Bridge and he also had golden labradors. So I had to incorporate all these to a one cake.











































































Hope you all like it!

I also made a little step by step on how I made the Tennis rackets.

First you need to roll out some white modeling paste to a thin sausage. You also can use your sugarshaper/clay gun to do this.
















Then take the two ends and make the frame of the tennis racket like in the below photo. When you have got the correct size you want and if there is any excess, cut it off.

















Roll out some more modeling paste to thin sausage shape ( thinner than what you used for the frame) and attach horizontal lines from one side to the other like in the photo. Use sugarglue to attach them.















And do the same verticaly. Then turn it over so it can settle and dry nicely.

Here is the finished rackets. I cover the handles with coloured modeling paste.

Here is the Number 1 cake I made. Winnie the Pooh is shop bought model.
