Basket of Blossoms

A peach basket of yellow roses, daffodils, pansies and little blue blossoms made a 93-year old grand dame (and her brood) very happy! I think my attempt to write the birthday wish in Chinese helped!

Close-up of the weave

The only kind of basket weaving I'll do - with buttercream icing. This cake is covered with cornflower blue basket weave and topped with daisies, apple blossoms and violets. And of course, the birds. Think I'll do some butterflies the next round and Little Miss wants a ladybug, too. This cake deco will be perfect for your mum's next birthday or Mother's Day! But caution! Grandchildren will be picking the sugar flowers off the cake for themselves!
