Sunflower cake
I wanted to try using the sunflower plunger I bought recently and thought of just making 3 sunflowers to put on a cake. One thing led to another and I end up making a whole basket of flowers ! Anyway, here are some pictures I took while making this cake today.
This is the sun flower mould that I wanted to try :
Leaving them to dry.
Making the basket weave pattern with that roller thingy :
I used a dummy cake for this, with just one layer of fondant. Crimped the base and top part.
Basket is ready.
Now to make the piece of cloth, to put on the basket. I arranged some tiny cut out flowers and roll them to incorporate it into the base white fondant. No need to put so many flowers like me, the whole thing is going to be covered with flowers anyway.
After this is done, I arranged my sun flowers and leaves. This is when I realized that there were too little flowers. By then, I was already tired, further more the electricity went off a few times due to the heavy rain and I was decorating in the dark. I took the short cut way and used the ivy cutters to add more deco. After much propping and concealing, this is the final result 
:
I guess I’m the first person to combine sun flowers and ivy 
. Maybe a better cake next time.
