Lesley's birthday cake, inspired by a birthday card Mick gave me a couple of years ago. It is a print by fashion artist Renee Gruau and it struck me as ideal! Cake is syrup Vic Sponge 3 layered with apricot conserve and a touch of vanilla buttercream. Fashionista lady is 2D, some fondant accents and some painted. Cameo from a mould and my first go at the pleating effect. I am so happy with this cake, think it may be my best work yet!

Wowzer!! This is really something! Never would have thought of it in a million years! She is PERFECT!! The feathers are perfect. The pleats are perfect. The hat brim & pearls are perfect. The ARM is perfect! Even the cake board! Lesley must have fallen out when you gave her this one! There must be a contest somewhere , where you can enter this??? WOW!

Thank you Betty and Sandra. I think my lady may be a bit 'sexier' as I didn't do her eye big enough to get the impish look, but that's fine. I was so happy with the black fondant feathers, came out exactly as I wanted them too!
