I had been looking for one of her cutters for literally months, and last fall when we were at ICES we kept seeing people using her "signature" cutter on lots of display cakes. Chaddy took a picture with his phone and we hit the vendor room, showing each and every vendor our picture to see if they had a matching cutter. Finally, one of the vendors had one and sold us her last one! I was SO excited!
So, I used her cutter to outline the yellow section of a new display cake, another in my so-called series of yellow and gray cakes. And ruffles are such a big trend in cakes right now too, that I had to add some. I did want to add my own flair to it, so I found this petal border cutter and decided to use that to make my ruffles.
AND NOW FOR THE GIVEAWAY!
Well, I don't have an extra set The Caketress cutters, but I did somehow find an extra set of the cutters I used to make the ruffles on my cake. It's the FMM Sugarcraft Straight Frill Set 3 (9-12) cutter (read more about it here). It's still in the package and everything!! If you interested in winning this, just leave a comment on this post from now until April 2nd at Noon EST. Just leave me your e-mail so I can contact you if you've won. I'll announce the winner here on the blog on Tuesday April 3rd. This giveaway is sponsored by little-ol-me!
