So here it is, the birthday cake made for my nieces 10th birthday party today. I made the cake design very simple with a green stem going around the cake with one large leaf on top for the LPS snail to sit on. The cake was a plain chocolate cake as requested by my niece.
To finish the cake I placed some pink gerbera/daisy flowers, mostly to hide some minor cracks, but they did suit the soft yellow cake very well in the end.
Remember that you can see step by step of how I made the LPS snail (without written details though) in the gallery.
Happy Caking!
Louise

I love all of your cakes! This one is so cute!! I was wondering where you get your cake bases from? The edges are so clean & the ones I get are so bumpy so when I put ribbon around it, it looks sloppy.

dpotter: No, I dont make my own sugarpaste only mmf now and then when im out of sugarpaste. I make the modeling paste with store bought SP
Keira: Well since I dont sell my cakes there is no problems making “characters” cakes. That is only if you have a shop and so that you cant make “characters” cakes. But it does surprice me that very high and renowned cake stores make such cakes. I would like you not do it.

So cute. But what about copyright laws? Granted, it was for a niece, so it was probably “gifted,” but do you run into problems just the same? I have a “no characters” policy, just because I dont want to mess with it, but it’d be nice if there were loopholes.
