Sunflower Cake

fondant sunflower

This cake was made for a Stag and Doe for some friends. I was asked to make the cake to coordinate with themes for the wedding.

The 10" vanilla cake was filled with chocolate buttercream and covered in white fondant. The bow and the sunflower are made from gumpaste.

After 'finishing' the cake I thought the top looked too bare so I added two more little sunflowers to the top.

  2. Hello I decorate cakes too and I am about to do a sunflower themed wedding cake. I really like the way you did your sunflower. If you don't mind me asking, what did you do to make it look this way?

  3. Hi Christina,
    I used a large daisy cutter for the sunflower and cut 3 of them so it looked layered. I used my ball tool to frill the pedals and I used an candy tray to dry them. I also used oreo cookie crumbs for the center! I hope that helps, if you have anymore questions please ask away :) Good luck on your cake!!
