<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My first topsy-turvy cake. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are so, so many things you could pick to put on and Alice cake! The bride especially is a big fan of the books, the original Tenniel illustrations, and the various disney films so we talked about what are her favourite things from each.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the list, have look and see if you can spot everything:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
playing cards</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cheshire cat</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hatter's hat</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
chess board</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
disney rose bushes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
disney signs</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
mirror</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bread and butterfly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mome Raths (disney version, not small green lost pigs!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Rocking horsefly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the garden of live flowers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
toadstools<br />
<br />
So, first thing was... the sketch. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjjLTsB30YJErsJ4eu678d5m8nM3apgYqjO5lJ6iRVe6_-iwadiq0vlCEcY7DJZnGP_EG6hBgVX-8sn7NhkHKkhE7z5K_iXUfVarmnIOlVW4KMnZKL2xYgXM1tZK8m9ybIWwFJCUixdZsa/s1600/IMG_3809.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjjLTsB30YJErsJ4eu678d5m8nM3apgYqjO5lJ6iRVe6_-iwadiq0vlCEcY7DJZnGP_EG6hBgVX-8sn7NhkHKkhE7z5K_iXUfVarmnIOlVW4KMnZKL2xYgXM1tZK8m9ybIWwFJCUixdZsa/s400/IMG_3809.JPG" width="241" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next I started to make all the bits and pieces that were to go on the cake.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvytBUct87winkYCNuLsRbz9n_38i9p6YFGqekFMvH4fvkkfBowcIdhntNCXlrDK0PFXAFJncggkuUL3ScUZqCL2CDN6FX9y9R30qQ93HN_58oA-dP3sHQFk4yM9NZ0GjgZx9rqRIJ3Kmq/s1600/IMG_0024.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvytBUct87winkYCNuLsRbz9n_38i9p6YFGqekFMvH4fvkkfBowcIdhntNCXlrDK0PFXAFJncggkuUL3ScUZqCL2CDN6FX9y9R30qQ93HN_58oA-dP3sHQFk4yM9NZ0GjgZx9rqRIJ3Kmq/s320/IMG_0024.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now, the problem with a design like this is that there is so much you can't do </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
until you've baked, crumb coated and covered the sponge...and you can't bake too far in advance because you want the cake to be fresh!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I expected not to get much sleep for this one.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOIiXa0NjFnHGPFZ73MmOH6GGBw0qdwLHeCT1A7yigdZNYv_aDIwRtcKUUZKEnDU9_uw6ljJoyMwnS_0OS959ySwtJ454mAkENIHRIDtZTJ9GulypZv3BJeYGAtABxtz8v6z_AhiKZrmt_/s1600/IMG_4480.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOIiXa0NjFnHGPFZ73MmOH6GGBw0qdwLHeCT1A7yigdZNYv_aDIwRtcKUUZKEnDU9_uw6ljJoyMwnS_0OS959ySwtJ454mAkENIHRIDtZTJ9GulypZv3BJeYGAtABxtz8v6z_AhiKZrmt_/s320/IMG_4480.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now, the sponge...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The 4 tiers were (from top to bottom)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Strawberry and champagne</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Orange and Elderflower</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Rhubarb and Ginger</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lemon Drizzle</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There were some things I could do in advance though, so I slow roasted some strawberries and rhubarb. The rest had to wait until closer to time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRD-Fs806LZSdE8E00MQE4r0u37enzzGk2yot_8eaJqmBkJxgQyxKXENuZ6cDUNG_ZzEZ3kNDdv3YKC2aHGUcPyYS_Fkf64ryDimC4ti05vK8IOYpxICWo0rqbgrM61mLQp7Ca_Nef4S1/s1600/IMG_4486.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRD-Fs806LZSdE8E00MQE4r0u37enzzGk2yot_8eaJqmBkJxgQyxKXENuZ6cDUNG_ZzEZ3kNDdv3YKC2aHGUcPyYS_Fkf64ryDimC4ti05vK8IOYpxICWo0rqbgrM61mLQp7Ca_Nef4S1/s320/IMG_4486.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's easy to underestimate how much goes into a big tiered cake. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just as a quick guide, an average home baked cake would use around 4-6 eggs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This cake used 58. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It also used 24 bars of butter</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
34 lemons</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
18 oranges</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
28 sticks of rhubarb</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and a mountain of sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now, the topsy part. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First, I did lots of research. There are two basic methods: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. make the top a big slope and rely on friction and maybe a central dowel to stop it sliding sideways and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. cut the slope, but then hollow out the middle so it's level so the weight is spread in the usual way. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Because it was going to be a tall cake, that I was going to have to transport quite a long way, I chose the second.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Of course, what the research didn't initially tell me, and what I soon came to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
realise was; </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
* all the demo cakes had a big difference between the size of the tiers (so when you cut out, there's a substantial rim that can support itself). My design was using the modern style of tall tiers with only an inch shelf on each side.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
* There was a real danger, if I followed the instructions I'd seen, when I put the fondant covered tiers together that the icing would be damaged because once the fondant was on I would be trying to put a 10<span style="font-family: "verdana";">¼" diameter cylinder into a 9</span><span style="font-family: "verdana";">¾" hole (and with a rim only 1 inch wide in the first place, there wasn't much margin to fix this). I was certainly not going to be able to decorate the tiers before stacking.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana";">As you can see below, I decided to make the rims a little narrower and reinforce them with skewers, then I covered the tiers in fondant. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana";">I used Carma Massa Ticino. I like this sugarpaste for lots of reasons, but in this situation it's perfect. It's got such flexibility that I could roll it thinner than some (so less danger of it fouling the next tier) and it stretched well so I could get it nicely shaped around the carved cake without the danger of it tearing like the awful sugarpastes I was forced to use at my old bakery </span></div>

Even though I'd cut the rims a little smaller, they still did foul slightly. Looking the photo below, you can see how the top of the pink tier has been pushed out slightly and the skewers have in turn shifted the lower layers sightly causing it to look a bit like it's slumped.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decorated the tiers once it was all stacked. </div>

I used a central dowel to ensure that there was no chance of the whole thing shifting sideways en route. I've tried sturdy cake stackers twice and wasn't impressed either time. I'll stick with my screw, washers and wooden dowel method. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I didn't put the top tier (the hat) on until we were at the venue </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To make the hat tilt, to make sure it was well anchored, and to put the wired roses into I cut a poly styrene wedge and covered it completely in black fondant to seal in any bits.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A wedding cake is going to sit there a long time, and it was a hot day, so it's important that the top cake, which was going to be on a tilt, couldn't shift sideways. Inside the hat is 2 layers of strawberry cake, with a rice crispy treat base. This gave it the strength needed to stake it into the poly separator.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The brim of the hat was made of a mixture of modelling chocolate and fondant, so it had the strength and malleability of the chocolate, but it would take the same edible paint as the the top when I airbrushed it.</div>

The final touch, and something I was quite pleased with, was the stand. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I saw a great vintage styled cake dome which had black stripes on it, but couldn't find a stand like that anywhere... so I painted one of my white stands with black acrylic paint. I really think it looks so much better than a simple white stand would.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The whole place looked amazing though. Heaven Farm is a magical place and all the styling and little touches were so well thought out.</div>

Boys are not hard to bake for, but sometimes they can be hard to decorate for. For Joe, torches have become a real interest so I wanted to design something to reflect this, but a torch shaped cake... well, it's hard to make that not look a bit dodgy really. So I went a different route. I think he approved.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Joe, you are so loved and I'm looking forward to spending some holiday time with you in a few weeks. Happy birthday lovely man xxxx</div>
