Cake Decorating Community - Cakes We Bake

Shoe is a fondant/gumpaste mix without the use of a mold or cutters. Made a template for the shoe & heel was done freehand to resemble one of my own shoes. The pearls on the shoe were hand rolled & then dusted in pearl dust. The beads on the necklace was also rolled by hand, the pendant & earrings were using Wilton's mold and then dusted with silver petal dust mixed w/vodka. The jewelry on the cake itself was a homemade mold & Wilton mold.

Thanks Goreti.  I knew I had seen somewhere about using a plastic bottle, but didn't have one to hand, so just winged it.  If I do it again, like you, I will do it this way!

Thanks for sharing Goreti, good luck!

The heel is the hardest.  Although I think it must be a lot easier with what I found on cc (of course after I made mine ughh).  If you want to check it out it's   http://cakecentral.com/g/i/2853701/a/3265480/just-wanted-to-share-w...    If I ever decide to try this again, I will try doing it this way.

Goreti - I now understand just how tricky these shoes are lol!  Just spent practically the whole day trying to make one for Daisy's birthday cake.  It's done and isn't too bad (rubbish heel though).  Problem is, I'm TERRIFIED of having to try to move it................

It is beautiful, Goreti and you did such an amazing job on it.

Thank you both.  Linda, I figured I actually had a cake that met the requirements so why not.
