front base, bustle and bow on back of base layers; pulled sugar
separator between top tier and second tier, with lace hanging below
top tier and sugar beads hanging from lace. The cake is on display

FLOUR POWER: BRIDES Editor in Chief Millie Martini
Bratten says, "One of the things that sets a wedding apart
from a regular party is a magnificent cake." The Mar/Apr
2009 issue of BRIDES showcases eight pages of
floral themed cakes that were entered in the Oklahoma State
Sugar Art Show. Everything from Coco Chanel to Russian folk
art inspired these showstoppers! The creators really reached
for the stars when putting the finishing touches on their
designs. Some used roses from their own gardens, hand-made
feathers and others were hand painted - all proof that if
you have talent, imagination, butter and sugar, you can rise
to new heights! |
