F1 FERRARI SILVERSTONE 003 - 625F
July is time for the Silverstone Formula One Grand Prix in the UK - even if qualifying day was flooded out. That's the British Summer for you! Car is sculpted from madeira cake with apricot conserve filling, covered in red fondant and then painted red again to give a bit more shine. Wheels and crash barriers are chocolate cake filled with caramel butter cream. Wheels were made by cutting rounds of cake with a pastry cutter and covered in black fondant. Front and rear spoilers were hand cut from gumpaste. Wheel hubs and lettering hand painted. Logos hand painted directly onto the car except for the Ferrari badge on the side, which I hand painted separately then stuck on. Track is black fondant, grass is lemon butter cream piped with grass tip. Kerbstones made from white and red fondant. Gold candles to give the effect of a fence.

Thanks everyone - makes me feel so much better when I get comments like that. I have to say, the relief was immense when I came down this morning and found it all still as I had left it last night - no collapsing overnight lol! Mandy, I can't tell you how many times I practised that horse before I finally put it on the badge!
