Black Lace & Red Roses Cake

This is the top tier of a dummy wedding cake I am doing to showcase at a local bridal shop. I have been in love with the lace effect you can do with sugarveil for a while and finally I went ahead a purchased a mat and tried my hand at it. I googled how to and in a few of the sites I found they advise not to do black the first time as it makes the sugarveil sticky and hard to work with. As you can see I didn't listen as I usually never do. I really wanted to do black! I have also been trying to perfect my roses so I made 2 dozen red ones for this cake. I have finished the whole cake this afternoon but I will have to wait until tomorrow when I have some natural light to work with to take the pics. I have to say that I am now hooked on sugarveil!

Tobey's Dedication Cake

I made this cake for my nieces dedication yesterday. We chose to do this cake because it was so delicate, dainty and just plain pretty just like Tobey. It was a white velvet cake with strawberry cream cheese filling as well to keep with the white and pink feminine theme of the cake. It was a wonderful day of celebration with friends and family.
