I made this November Embrace Tiered Flower Cake for my birthday this year. I wanted to do a wedding style cake so I chose this style.
The top tier was lemon cake and raspberry buttercream. The middle tier was yellow cake with chocolate buttercream. The third tier was chocolate cake with Oreo cookie buttercream. It was 10in,8in, and 6in.
I made the flowers, tree trunk and branches out of MMF. In each flower I glued with icing a sugar pearl. There were 175 flowers. The cake was crumb iced and covered in MMF I tinted slightly with brown Wilton coloring to make it an ivory or cream color. I put gold luster dust into some icing and piped the bead trim. This gave it a gold sheen.
The buttercream icing recipe is from C&H powdered sugar. Everyone loved my cake and I am getting a lot more clients now!
It’s a beautiful cake. I’m just wondering why you call it a November Embrace cake. It appears to be cherry blossoms which I associate more with April.
LOVE this cake!
can you tell me more about the flowers? Did you use a cookie cutter? Where did you find them?
Thank you!
I think it is beautiful!
