SMBC Pink Ruffle Strawberry Baptism Cake
Recommended Tutorial for Buttercream Ruffle Cake of Venna's Art of Cakes |
The Story behind this CakeThis SMBC cake was made for the christening of my friend's baby. It's a vanilla sponge cake filled and frosted with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream. I followed Veena's Art of Cakes tutorial for the buttercream ruffle technique and Gulnaz Mitchel tutorial for the David Austin Rose. I have used Wilton 104 tip for the ruffles and the rose is made of 50/50 gumpaste and fondant to allow it dry faster and I could roll it very thin and get more realistic look. We had a low budget, and this prompted us to use our imagination to achieve an attractive result. I prepared the table. I made 3 cakes and cupcakes. I like girly, simple cakes. I love flowers, lace, ruffles. As in the table had 3 cakes I didn't want to see a confusing table with too many items. I opted for 3 simple and delicate cakes. And particularly I made this cake SMBC decorated because not everyone likes fondant.
