Cakepops, flowers and shiny pretty things

When Bree and her mum Brenda came to me to ask about a 21st cake they had a particular photo from the Internet to start from. In respect to the original cake designer (who was unknown) we made some design changes to create a cake just for Bree.

So starting with two base tiers of Styrofoam covered in ivory fondant we added a top tier of White chocolate and raspberry mud cake encased in whit chocolate ganache and match with the ivory fondant.

We then added 6 layers of cakepops (choc mud, cinnamon & white choc raspberry mud) tinted from a soft coral pink to the palest pink on top.

Instead of the fresh flower topper on the original cake I had my first go at a free form Camellia style flower and added a jewelled broach centre and a crystal 21.

The whole cake was finished with a light spray of pearl shimmer.
