My First Cake

This cake was for my son's christening in February. It was my first cake using sugarpaste and and my first experiment with making roses. I was quite happy with the result!
Since the cake was big I got some help from my father in law to roll out the sugarpaste and to place it on the cake.
The roses were made in the easiest way, place a number of cut out circles in a row overlapping each other, roll it up, cut in half and spread the leafs a little to make the rose more real looking.



While baking and making this cake my new hobby became clear - I want to make cakes, cupcakes and beautiful decorations for cakes. This can be a neverending story since there are so many things to try, so many flavours, colours, sugarpastes and other edible materials....
