Class 7 – Wedding Cake

Class 7 – Wedding Cake

A decorated wedding cake.  Dummies or real cake can be used.  Any shape is allowed so cakes may be carved if the competitor wishes.  Competitors will gain more marks if a cake is carved rather than using a pre-shaped dummy, but carving is not a necessity.  The cakes may be coated and decorated in any edible medium.  The use of real ribbon on the cake/around the cake is not allowed.  You can use your own skills to create an edible ribbon, border or piped border if you wish. Ribbon is allowed on the edge of the cake drum/board.  A plinth can be a covered double board which is iced and the sides covered with ribbon, braid or any edible medium.

7B – Masterclass – Wedding Cake
