This is my second post, but i am going to take you right in to my world.

I love working on dummy cakes. Dummy cakes are cakes either made of styrofoam or made of real cake/ bisquit but just to show, not to eat.

Today i worked on a Victorian Marie Antoinette style wedding cake. If you know that style, there are a lot romantic colours and gold involved. Roses and soft looking flowers are a key in this style too. Okay you are still following me? Good!

I started the wedding cake, Yesterday. Everything was all rainbows and cupcakes (you read what i have done here ;) ). I worked with a lot of pearls and drapings. I was pretty happy with the result, a three tier cake with lots of gold an pearls. So when i started working on the cake today, i started with a lof energie. I had an amazing idea of airbrushing a beauiful stencil on the other side of the cake, in gold, to keep the gold as an returning colour. I started airbrushing, music out loud, so singing...till i saw what was happening. The stencils was not attaching to the cake, so all the paint was all over the place. Well if you know me i have a short temper when it comes to cakes and mistakes...i just can't stand it when i make a stupid mistake. So i stopped singing and started swearing (yes people i swear). After a short moment of "i am going to throw the cake in the bin" i regrouped my self and started to think what to do now. It was a huge stain, so nothing that was easy to cover up. Okay, i have creative brain, so good ideas, you are allowed to appear. There it was...pearls! Wait what, did you know how long you worked on those pearls Yesterday? Girl are you sure want to this. I had no other option so there we went. But then the pears are and i was not happy, it looked so, uhmm how do is say the kind way, cheap. I texted my sister, that she needed to help me and she came up with a great idea, why not a frame around the pearls. Yeah that sounds good, i have few beautiful barok style moulds (not everything is what it seems to be) that i could use for the frame.

To be honest the result looks great! The cake is till far from done, but here is the result of my mistake and cover up!
