Christmas Cheer!

Today I have spent the day playing with icing! I have really enjoyed making snowmen, Christmas trees and snowballs for the decorations for two Christmas cakes (made by Sue Rowlston, my boyfriends mum). I used ready to roll marzipan and white icing to cover the fruit cakes, using a apricot jam glaze between the layers to help them stick. I then made the snowmen and tree using regal coloured icing, I've using cocktail sticks to make sure that they stay in place on the cakes.   




Work in progress...




adding the details to the figures.

Do you want to build a snowman?

The finished design!
