Some of you might know this story, how it actually all started with a Barbie cake. I always loved baking but creating that Barbie cake for my daughter’s fourth birthday was the beginning of where I am today. For 20 years I had designed wedding dresses for private clients and whenever I could embellish a wedding dress with silk or beaded flowers, I would become elated. I never knew you could decorate a cake with fondant and discovering its malleability got me completely obsessed. An unexpected twist of fate that resulted from a desire to give my daughter everything I had wished for at her age. A Barbie covered in plastic wrap from the waist down, inserted in a baked dome shaped cake, dressed in pink fondant and white cut out sugar flowers with edible beaded centers. My past couture life evolving into a new found cake life with my deep love of flowers at the center of it all once again. One of the first times working with sugar, that Barbie cake was far from perfect but everything that happened because of it, was great. My book, A Sweet Floral Life the ultimate dream. Dahlias and roses, sugar flowers for A&Z, the sweetest wedding couple this week. Flower friday, hope you have a great weekend everyone. A Barbie cake (never shared before) and where it can lead in my instastories. #barbie #mybook #creativityfound #sugarflowers #flowerlove #littlestoriesofmylife #currentmood
