Sydney Cake Bake & Sweets Show

And what a wonderful Sunday it was! This year, I signed up for a class - how to make wafer paper flowers and watercolour cake. And even better, I did this with 4 other friends (so we took up just under half the class!).

Who would have thought that wafer paper and piping gel could be the bane of your existence? ;) A lot of patience is required.

Watercolours should probably be called vodka (or other spirit) colours - it is simply mixing gel colour with vodka to water it down and using a broad brush gently swiping the edges of the cake until you have the colour and effect you are trying to achieve. As you can see from the class, no cake is the same so it's easy to put your own signature on it!

And this was my creation after 4 hours... sunset colours!
