Green & Gold



We have decided on the colour theme for the wedding: green and gold. So for the last couple of batches of cakes, we've been buying all the gold and green food colourings we could lay our hands on. We have found the perfect green - it's called Holly Green and is just what we want. Gold is more difficult, and often looks more yellow than green. But we have discovered that painting some gold food colouring on white royal icing creates a good effect. We didn't do that for those pictured here... the reason this particular batch is on display is because it's the first batch where all teh cakes were reasonably presentable! We still have a long way to go - and only 7 months left now!!
