Product Information

The Little Sugar Rose have added floral decoration to this design, but you could let the ruffles speak for themselves and opt for a simpler finish. While it is important that a wedding cake appeals to the visual senses, it’s (arguably) even more important that it tastes good. The top two tiers on this design by Cake Buds are as simple and sophisticated as they come, and one simple wedding cake idea we love is to pair really minimalist tiers with some bolder and more 'out there' colours or decorations for that cool contrast.

Place a teaspoon of Metallic Rose Gold Lustre into a dish and mix with clear alcohol to a painting consistency. Bianca Branche from Beez Cakes explains, "I love working on wedding cakes where I am given artistic license and where I get to create beautiful sugar flowers. As a creative person, to be able to produce something out of the ordinary is exciting for me." Another stunner by Deluce Cakes, this sleek design would suit the most elegant wedding theme perfectly. This rose gold cake was inspired by the work of Nauty Little Treats, who has created a number of beautiful rose gold cakes. Find out how to re-create some of these elements below!Paint a dot of Claret cocoa butter in the centre, then add a dot of Snow Drift cocoa butter and swirl around in a spiral for the centre. The fact that this entire thing is edible is blowing our mind and though it does look too good to eat, we wouldn't hesitate taking a bite! This technique is great for adding intricate details or highlighting specific areas of your cake. Dusting:

Out of everything I tried these 6 options gave the best finish. I had read some people used vegetable oil, and I did test this out, but I found anything oil based didn’t dry. That oil always remained slightly wet and I like to know the paint has completely dried so you don’t get any finger marks.I also tried cocoa butter but found with lustre dust the finish was extremely waxy and very streaky. These are best with matt edible tints. We love the combination of palette knife and intricate hand painting - they contrast beautifully but also work really well together. Another masterpiece we adore from Hartt Cakes.Once you’ve familiarised yourself with the way gold flake affects your baking, you can move onto gold leaf. Preparations Though we love the incredibly gorgeous colour of this cake, we're more obsessed with the small wedding cake design. The jagged unfinished top of each tier is such a unique take, and stands out even more on such a small design. Although, if you love this and have a bigger wedding party to cater to, the team at Cobi & Coco could absolutely replicate this in a larger size.
