She asked for a mushroom doll dress cake (and added a wing request last minute). This little woodland fairy is made from layers of vanilla bean sponge and strawberry Italian meringue buttercream. It’s decorated with a new topping experiment I’m working on, made mostly from white chocolate (but it isn’t modeling chocolate). The mannequin body and head are each chocolate ganache bonbons with white chocolate shells. The hat is a chocolate cookie. The wings have royal icing frames filled with a gelatin mixture (I wasn’t pleased with the eatability of the gelatin, so need to work on that some more). The little butterflies are homemade sprinkles.

    Wow, this is gorgeous!

    Did she just watch Alice in Wonderland, or did she just want a cake?

  4. Your artistry is out of this world. She’ll remember this forever, and that memory will be with her and you for a very long time. You’re so special and sweet for sharing this.
