This was my very first attempt at piping icing onto a cake. The project was a birthday cake featuring Disney's Cinderella and was I nervous. This was actually my sister's project, all I did was the details and most of the basic icing.
Unfortunately I didn't start taking pictures from the start as my hands were covered in icing, but here's the earliest photo in the process.
Being my first attempt at this I still was not pleased with my piping skills on her dress, particularly the chest area.
Now the challenging part; her face!
Piped in around her facial features.
Couldn't take in-between shots of this process as I was working with both icing and carving tools and my sister was busy baking another cake.
The eyes and mouth took the longest time, somewhere around 30 minutes.
If you want it better than that, call Walt Disney.
We filled in the negative space with pink. I think it worked well.
Then my sister had the brilliant idea to ice the side of the cake in colours that flow from the main picture.
And voila! One Disney Cinderella cake, boxed and ready for delivery.
