Ron Ben-Israel Course

This last week I got to meet my cake idol and inspiration wedding cake master Ron Ben-Israel!
He taught in Minette Rushing's Custom Cake shop in Savannah, GA, USA.
I completed his Sugar flower course - Signature flowers.

The whole experience was amazing and I learnt so many new techniques and tricks.
Everyone was so friendly, met some fantastic new friends and Minette was a lovely host.

Now to let the photos do the talking...

Tropical Wedding Cake

This cake I have been really excited to do for a long time!! The dreaded extended tier.
It looks like 2 "tiers" but inside the bottom tier are 3 cakes and the top tier has 2 cakes in it.
The cake weighs around 17kgs and feeds 200 Coffee sized portions.
I decided to use my new cymbidium orchids and throw in a few sugar hibiscus I made, some bamboo and Aloha!!


Thought I'd share a quick shot of the cake before it becomes pretty.... Whoa thats a lot of chocolate ganache!

Persian inspired cake.

Created this two tier wedding cake this week at PC105.
Something a little bit different with the colours but I think its really fun and dramatic.
The cake is offset with a handpainted gold peony.
