2010 - My most recent cake. Dear friend Renata, asked me to make a cake for a birthday of her colleague/friend. I had a freedom to choose the design as I please, but it had to be a chocolate cake.
I made a chocolate cake and filled it with nougat. I was informed people liked the cake. :-)
This time I decided to make a present / box. I have seen it on many "cake pages" and now I decided to do it too. The color was darker then what I intended, but the ordered colors did not arrive on time. However, I believe that this dark purple goes very well with the off white.
I had several totally new projects here. I never did a box before, and I never did this kind of quilting on the sides before (besides I had no idea if it will work with mmf at all since mmf does not dry so fast), I never did this kind of roses before either!
While trying to find out how to do roses so they end up looking like roses, I found a great video on youtube that helped me achieve exactly that. And again, without too many tools! While doing it, I descovered that corn starch works wonders with mmf.... :-))
Yes, I know the box lacks on perfection but I will get there!
