Little Prince

This is one of my favourite designs "Little Prince" we call it.  The shape of the cake is a scalloped oval, or cloud as some people call it.  The pale blues and sage greens are offset by pearly white fondant.  A tiny baby with wings sleeps on the top with tiny blue wings and rosy cheeks he is so cute.

The fleur de lys was a symbol of the prince many years ago, hence the title of this cake.

This little antique style baby cake bears the Fleur de Lys the sign of the Prince. Blue flowers and sage green accents decorate this little two tiered cake topped with a tiny winged sugar baby made and painted by hand.

This cake with a distinct French flair was for a bride who lived in France.  Actually, after talking to her about it, she lived in the next street to me when I also lived in France, small world indeed!  

The bride had supplied me with a fleur de lys cookie cutter to make the cake topper, but after trying it out a couple of times we realised that it was neither big enough or bold enough to carry off the finishing touches to this elegant design.

I made the topper from chocolate and hand sculpted it into it's form and made a chocolate plinth for it to sit on around which the roses were placed.  The lace work on the top tier was brushed with a cream pearl finish which had a gold fleck.  The draping on the middle tier was also brushed with the same finish.  The gold fleur de lys were painted with 24k gold dust to match the fleur de lys on the top.

The roses were made of white chocolate and brushed with pearl dust also to finish the opulent look of this cake.
