So, I think we’re going to do Threadcakes this year!
freakin awesome (http://www.flickr.com/photos/ambermckenney/)
Sometimes following the #cake tag on my Tumblr dashboard brings up awesome things like this!
Marzipan Christmas Wreath
A ring-shaped fruit cake covered with coloured marzipan and decorated with coloured and painted marzipan fruits, and some chocolate curls to simulate cinnamon sticks, marzipan holly, and fondant icing candy canes. For a final finish touch, the cake has been given a pearlised lustre (completely edible, and does not affect the flavour).
“‘Twas the night before Christmas” Novelty Cake
A square fruit cake covered with marzipan and fondant icing. A few pieces have been removed and iced over with coloured fondant to mimic the appearance of fruitcake, and three fondant icing mice placed in and around, giving the appearance of a cake that has been nibbled at by the mice! The cake is finished with a seasonal accent of fondant holly.
Midnight Snowfall Cake
A round rich fruitcake covered with a layer of marzipan and fondant icing painted with rich midnight blues and decorated with fondant snowflakes and sugar glitter.
