This is the reverse of the blue pink flowered handbag cake that I created for a demonstration I was giving. As I explained before it is double sided in order for me to have more techniques to show to everyone.
Reverse of the blue pink flower handbag cake
As usual, when I am creating my designs, I like to try something a little different from the norm.
Intricate patterns
When decorating my cakes I like to use as little cutters as possible. Sometimes, when using the cutters, I try to make something out of them that they were not originally intended for.

This cake is a two sided handbag cake which I made for a British Sugar Guild demonstration in a couple of weeks. It will be used to demonstrate lots of different techniques and hopefully inspire people to experiment with their own cake designs.
Ideal for any celebration!
I painted a pattern in the background to give it some depth. Then flowers made of petal paste were attached over this. The same flower cutter was used to emboss the handbag top and it was finished off using a homemade button mould to create the clasp.

The cake was finished off with tiny piped pale pink dots and silver painted to hightlight the finer detail.

Keep a look out for my next update with details of the reverse side it as it is even better than this one.

This cake was designed for a lady who loves shoes and handbags (who doesn’t?) and had a surprise when she received her beautiful cake.
The handbag was sculpted out of chocolate sponge cake before being covered in vanilla buttercream and bright pink icing sugar.
The flowers on the front have had edible lace applied onto the petals with tiny piped dots around the edge to give definition.
I imprinted a pattern into a piece of icing sugar and added eible lace onto another and then this was draped around the base like fabric.
The whole appearance was finished off with a delicate handmade shoe and letters with birthday wishes.

This pretty pink handbag cake was designed for a special girls 16th birthday party.
A sponge cake was carved into the handbag shape and then covered in pink icing. A pin wheel was used to recreate a decorative stitching pattern along the edges and sides of the bag.
I made a mould of some different buttons to make icing buttons to decorate the front and back of the cake. I also added some hand made flowers to the front for good measure.
The base is also icing and patterned to look like fabric. It is finished off with a lovely font saying ‘Happy 16th Birthday Abbie’.
