As requested I went with a standing Giraffe! Its a little more challenging, but lots to learn and I'm sure this will open up a new skill to make other fun standing toppers. You can view and make the 'Giraffe' PDF & tutorial here: https://www.skool.com/cakecraftclub/classroom/7dab47d7?md=db9c07a891b34ae58441c8e0a9a95b19

I'm really excited to join you all! I am a hobby baker and cake decorator, mainly doing cakes for friends and family. I am hoping this platform will take me out of my comfort zone and stretch my creative abilities. The projects look great and the tutorials are wonderfully explained. I can't wait to get involved.

As a new member I thought be fun to have ago at the previous monthly events. So meet Fred he is not perfect but I have made worse models. Today’s project is finish the peony.

Hey everyone, the peony needs to be in by the end of next week please! The Giraffe will be released by Tuesday excited for this one ;)

My good Americans friends had a house warming party at the same time as celebrating 4th July. They asked me to do a cake. So here is the result. It is nearly as I wanted it but with the heat on the butter cream and font it was not easy. Lifting the font from the bench to the cake was not fun as the font was so soft. The inserting of 50 stars into the font was interesting. I made a few mistakes which I have learnt for the next cake. The cake was not level but luckily this was not noticeable by the guests that I knew! I did the sponges in the 3 colours which people were impressed and it tasted good. So all in all I was quiet happy. The cupcakes were gluten free. And my so American friends in front of the USA flag.
