I was asked by my client to create a cake with cupcakes in the theme of the party her daughter was holding for her 21st Birthday party. The theme was a black and white masked ball to be held in a white marquee.
The design I decided on was a 7″ round cake which would have the black and white mask on it with Ostrich feathers for decoration. I decided not to make the mask out of fondant so I brought one then this could be re-used by the client if needed.
Then there were 40 cupcakes to be made in the same theme with a little mask on each of them. Now this time I did make the masks. I made a template then cut them all out of fondant and let them set into shape before putting buttercream icing on the cupcakes.
The cupcakes had to then be put onto a cupcake tower with the 7″ round cake on the top.
The finished look was stunning as I hope you will agree.
