The time has come! I have to admit a little secret… Whenever people ring and ask for number shaped cakes I tend to try and put them off for a different style! Well, no longer – I am a new fan.
I have always really struggled to get the convering clean and tidy on number shaped cakes and hate presenting a cake if it is not perfect (or as near to perfect as poss!) So practice I did and I seem to have found a method of covering that ‘will do’ for now…
The cake pictured was for the son of a client of my husband’s – A man that he has spoken about several times as what a nice man he is – no pressue there then to do a good cake! When I spoke to the birthday boy’s mum she asked for a baby green as this is the colour he has always had his room decorated in and number cakes – Oh how was I going to make this what she wanted but yet suitable for an 18 year old? We came up with the combination of green and balck with good old star explosions and I have to admit I was quite pleased with the end result – The good news…So were they!
Coming up next…I have no idea!
Very cool! I love the stars and color combo.
