July 11 was my husband's birthday.....So I decided to decorate a cake for him..... I was thinking for some nice design......
My hubby wanted a cake which has some flowers on them and then I ended up with this cake.....He loved it....
I made those blossom flowers out of fondant.....and made them dry....Then I iced the cake and piped the leaves with butter-cream icing and placed the flowers on them.....

Vegetable Shortening - 1 cup
Vanilla flavor - 1 teaspoon
Milk or water - 4 tablespoon
Confectioners sugar - 1 lb(approx 4 cups)
Meringue powder - 1 tablespoon
salt - a pinch
Method:
Cream Shortening,flavoring and water. Add all the dry ingredients and mix on medium speed untill all ingredients are mixed(7 mins)
This is the basic recipe for butter cream icing....Any colour can to added to it...
Meringue powder will be avail....in any craft store where wilton products are sold....
Any doubts let me know....
Thank you. I live in India and don't think I can get meringue powder here. Let me try :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Raaga....
ReplyDeleteMeringue powder can be substituted with egg whites.......And i think Vegetable Shortening can be sutituted with our India's white butter.....
