Wilton Course 3 - The Fondant Ribbon Cake

The first half of Wilton Course 3 includes covering of the cake using fondant, making the fondant ribbon, flower cutouts and bead border. The above is done by me in class specially for a friend who just delivered a baby boy...that's the reason for the blue ribbon.

Class finished late as it was the first time for some working with fondant. Part 2 of the class this Saturday would see us completing a 3-tiered dummy wedding cake, incorporating all that was learnt in Course 1, 2 and 3. How exciting!
