Just thought I'd share this baking news tid bit with you all as it really is a site to behold!
Kate and Wills' Wedding Cake, baked by Fiona Cairn and her team, is enormous!
A traditional fruit cake with white icing and 900 white icing paste roses and the Royal crest - though the 8 tiers are perhaps a little more than the average weddingnewly weds would commission! Fiona Cairns and her team apparently assembled the cake at Buckingham Palace, working within the Royal hub for a few days before the it finally finished on Thursday, just in time for the big day.
Apparently the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are fans of Cairn's fruit cakes (Paul McCartney apparently orders one every Christmas). Fiona Cairns has commented that the cake reflected "some of the architectural details in the room so the garlands on the walls were reproduced loosely on the fourth tier - we've used roses, acorns, ivy leaves, apple blossom and bridal rose".
Let's hope it tasted as good as it looks!
