A few weeks ago, one of my work colleagues asked me if I could make her a New Home cake as a gift for friends who were moving into a new home.
As I am about to embark on a 5 day intensive cake decorating course next week at Paul Bradford’s Sugarcraft School, I was keen to take this opportunity to get more practice in before the course begins.
For cake inspiration I googled New Home cake, and this cute birdhouse design, by Manchester Tarts, stood out by far.
I made some tweaks/adjustments to the details and finishing touches of the cake design, and was thrilled with the end result.
Hope the recipients enjoy this cake, and I wish them many years of happiness in their New Home!
That is stunning!!! Where did you get the letter templates? Ive been looking for some for ages! X
Thanks. These are the letter templates I used.
Bit fiddly at first, but you soon get the hang of them…
