A friend asked me to make a Twilight New Moon Cake for a movie party she was having.
Here is the short version:
It was a 9″ round cake, 2 layers, filled with buttercream icing and covered with black fondant, wrapped with a strip of red fondant. The ruffled tulip is was cut from gumpaste and hand painted with gel coloring. I painted New Moon on a strip of white fondant and placed it on the cake board.
Can you post more details about how you made the tulip? I’m doing a Twilight cake and have been agonizing over this part. THANKS!
yes please do i have the same dilemma i am making a cake for my moms bday and i ordered a silk ruffled tulip on the internet and it look nothing like the cover of the book.
