I did this cake a few weeks ago and I really enjoyed doing it. So much so that I am planning on doing a display cake in a similar fashion.
This bride wanted the ornate lacework on her dress recreated on her cake. She provided me with a scan of the lace pattern. We printed it out and then traced it on copy paper. From that black and white drawing, we could scan it in and resize it to fit the cake.
Once it was the right size, I went to work with my Sugar Veil icing tracing that lacework over and over.
My brother even made a new custom cake stand to place this cake on! The bride liked it so much, she just decided that she would purchase it as a keepsake. How sweet is that?
