Botanical Bas Relief with Hand Crafted Phalaenopsis

I made this cake for my friend Jessica who is celebrating her birthday today.
Design inspiration comes from decorative ceramic handmade botanic bas relief tile that I found on the internet.

I opted for a more free flow design with a bit of asymmetrical approach and this is what I came up with.

Love the white on white contrast texture of botanic bas relief and hand crafted sugar Phalaenopsis with delicate frills.  To connect the design with the cake board, I painted a very light green on the frills.

 

 

Cake flavour was carrot cake with excellent spice flavours, paired with a moist crumbs, sweet pineapple, golden raisins and crunchy walnut.with lemon curd Swiss meringue butter cream covered with home made marzipan.
