Sheena's Parcel Birthday Cake
Parcel cakes are a brilliant way of making a square cake interesting
without becoming too fussy. I have made many different parcel cakes from single
parcels to up to four square cakes forming a towering stack of parcels. Just about any colour combination looks good when used carefully for
parcel cakes.
This parcel was based on a square light fruit cake and made for Sheena’s 70th birthday. Her daughter Sue ordered the cake from me and following a consultation the elegant colour combination of pale ivory, and subtle gold was chosen. The single sugar crafted lily to the top along with the label made from icing and hand painted are a simple yet striking decoration which can be easily removed and kept as a memento of the day.
I was delighted to read the review she posted:
“The cake Chris made for my Mum's 70th Birthday was beautiful, both in looks and taste. The intricate detail of the lily was exquisite. Have just placed an order for another celebration, second cake from Chris and am 100% confident of the same level of service, commitment and quality.”
