This is the birthday cake I made for Mackenzie. It was fairly simple design but I think it worked pretty well. The cake was red velvet (which caused me some hassles cause I used the cupcake recipe). I then covered it with buttercream icing and then put the sugarpaste over it. I thought the rolling out of the icing and placing it over the cake would be hard but it wasn't too hard. I had to put rolled paper towel in the bow loops to let them set properly.
I did find that the sugarpaste left in a plastic container went soft and sweated. It was best to leave in a container and just covered with a tea towel or something. It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to try some more things. I want to do an Albanian flag for Behar's birthday which I am hoping won't be too hard. I'll let you know how it goes!
