Breakfast at Tiffany's

A few weeks ago I made this lovely Tiffany box cake for a client. She wanted something classy and elegant for her mum's birthday, and after a few sketches we finalised it with the iconic box and its ribbon, plus a string of pearls around it.




Handmade fondant pearls


Here's the thing though...once she removed the box lid (which was a single 2-inch layer of cake, covered in ganache and fondant)...



 Surprise!! A pearl bracelet to match the pearl necklace!


 

I loved making this cake and seeing it come to fruition from sketch to reality. And just between you and me, I'm waiting for a clever man to contact me so I can make it as a proposal cake! Won't it look gorgeous with a diamond ring in the middle of it? (Don't take my word for it, take hers:)
