Starting work on wedding fayre cakes

I started the work for the first wedding fayre yesterday. It takes me about 2-3 weeks planning, sketching and sourcing etc. And then about another 2-3 weeks preparation. This time, however, I am afraid I left it a little later, and only started, as I said, yesterday. But I do work well when I have a deadline looming and I have done about a third of the flowers needed for my cupcakes, so that is not too bad.

The picture is an experimental cake topper. I made it by making a heart 'frame' out of white flower paste and then layering leaves, daisies and 5 petal flowers on top. I am waiting for it to dry to see whether it is strong enough to hold up. It is just over 15cm high, so it may break (boo hoo, lots of crying) and then I will try a smaller, maybe thicker version. So, just need to keep my fingers crossed.

Speak to you tomorrow,
