This is the main reason for me learning how to pipe Russian flowers. My grandmother turns 90 next week. Tomorrow is our family party for her. The bottom is traditional Christmas cake, made in October and maturing in spiced rum. The top is devils food cake. It is far from perfect. I had a small procedure on my shoulder on Wednesday, and I'm awaiting carpal tunnel surgery so this is the best I could do.
The purple basket weave and icing is royal icing, the flowers are Italian meringue buttercream.
