Notice my contact info to the right, if you want to contact me with any questions. I would also like to say that I do attempt to give credit where credit is due. I do not make any claims to cakes in my blog except the ones in my slideshow. If I show a cake I will try to post some type of identifer with it, however, if I don't know who posted the cake it is impossible for me to do that. I am only using the cake to illustrate a specific technique.

My First Attempt at a Lambeth cake



Well, I told you that when I finished my Lambeth cake I would post a picture of it.  So, here you go.  I realize it looks a little rough.  The piping was much more difficult then I thought it would be, but actually creating the design for it presented more of a problem then the piping.  It was interesting to try and make it all look cohesive.  Hope you like it.

    Wow! I am so impressed with this piping! I hope that I will practise so that mines can look that clean! Did you use buttercream for it?

      Sorry, it took so long to get back to you. I never was notified I had a comment. Actually it wasn't buttercream. It was royal icing in a medium-think consistency. I think the next time I attempt this, I will try a slightly less stiff icing and wait a little longer between applications. I tried to put the next layer on to soon and it kind of collapsed on me. I think a thinner Medium consistency would be better.
