Find Out My Inspiration Source!

by Kristen 14 Comments

As promised here are a few photos of what I have used for inspiration for the Novelty Cake competition. I struggled last night with the fondant as it was not cooperating at all. I usually don’t have problems with Bakels (Pettinice) but this time I had. Luckily I had some Renshaw Regalice that I decided to give a last try as it was getting late. It worked perfectly:-)

My inspiration for Scandinavian Cake Show 08

The Inspiration Source for the Novelty Cake Competition

So, today, I only need to assemble the cakes, add the final decorations and make a box for the cake to be transported in, and last but not least the most important of all to make a first aid cake kit in case something should happen which of course there won’t (knock knock) 😉 I am quite pleased with the design of the cake, not something fancy and complicated but just fun and typical me:-) Are you curious now???

I will make sure to take some photos from the show!

Happy Caking

Louise
