Description This is an all-round 'gift' cake that I make for all different occasions. Seeing as it's Mothers Day soon, I thought I'd put it on....

...you can obviously change the colour of the flowers, and even swap the flowers for eggs at easter...

Here is a tutoral on how I did these flowers

Thankyou......I've got another one to do this week in pink shades. I always forget how long it takes to do the roses, so I better start it earlier this time..

my friend said she went on the philli website, they have recipes there, she made profiteroles with it as the filling. i had a look too there were as cake frosting, so if you have any left over cake spread on biscuits, can't remember the other ideas on there, seems a shame just to put it on bread.

ginas-cakes In reply to claremanson [2012-03-11 14:52:09 +0000 UTC]

Well.....whatever I put it on, I've told the kids not to touch it until I open it!
...I'll have to go on that website and have a look....later as I've got 4 sponges to cook and a stack of school uniform to iron

.....funny you should say that. The one I've just put in my gallery, I did submit exclusively to food-yum, but with your Easter feature, it's got me in the mood now, so I've submitted it to my own gallery...

Those roses look like they took a lot of work!

ginas-cakes In reply to LadyLaryssa [2012-03-09 13:36:57 +0000 UTC]

Yes...they certainly did, I think you could have drawn them quicker.....

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LadyLaryssa In reply to ginas-cakes [2012-03-20 18:47:18 +0000 UTC]

That's because drawing only deals with two dimensions. Adding a third dimension is like the time it takes to draw a rose, squared.

...I read how to do them in a book ages ago....don't know which one, but I'm putting on a tutoral tomorrow for people to have a go. I don't know if it's the best way, but it's effective for flowers that are not too small ...

....well thankyou...
The problem with me is that I take time.....lots, so I get good results, but would have to charge a fortune to earn any sort of money.
...that and I'm taken my 'Mum' role very seriously. I'm all for independant working women, but unless we magically get a 48 hour day, I just can't fit it all in at the moment

..Yea, I suppose I'm quite tough on myself most of the time. The result's good, but I'm sure the way I do it isn't how it supposed to be done. I was going to post how I make flowers tomorrow for a fellow da, so I'll see how it goes down.

...I was going to put how I make my roses on...what do you think?

claremanson In reply to ginas-cakes [2012-03-08 12:52:14 +0000 UTC]

yes that would be great! i am wanting to make lots of mini roses and maybe add some of those silver ball edible decoration things if i can find any. My mother passed away 5 years ago so i haven't had to think about mothers day gifts for a long time, however my other half is useless at presents he will just get her some flowers, not even a card as he "doesn't do cards!" so if i get the chance i will make her some
