This is the lovely Sian and James who came to see us a couple of of months ago for lunch. Sian and I used to work together and she’s asked me to have a go at making her a wedding taster box. She’s having a wonderfully 50s inspired ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’ wedding which is so classic and stylish. I had a go at a few designs and she took the cakes away to think over what she preferred the best.
It was a lovely box to do and Sian gave me lots of inspiration to think about as well as doing some research myself. I think the simplest bows work best although I think they might have to be thinner and more delicate. The single black strap with a diamonte clasp was a favourite but of couse the diamonte isn’t edible! I did buy some edible diamonds and used them but I didn’t think they were very successful.
Hopefully I’ll find out in the next few weeks whether she’d like me to make her cakes and which designs she selects. Very exciting!
I love these cupcakes! Did you use little silver balls to make those initials? That must have taken you ages!
