1 Our Serenity Rose collection uses Pantone s Colours of the Year for a beautiful summer wedding look. The light and elegant hues are used alongside delicate lace and pretty floral decorations, making them the perfect choice for on-trend feminine brides. The four gorgeous tiers are completely interchangeable and are designed to be used either individually or combined to create a multi-tiered cake, catering to any wedding budget, theme or size. PREPARATION Prepare each cake ready for sugar paste Colour 1.2kg Culpitt white with Colour Splash gels: Navy Blue and Violet to create a pale purple. Add small, equal amounts of each colour at a time, kneading the paste to obtain your colour. To achieve a sharp neat 90 top edged finish, cover the cake in, and then use the Belissimo cake smoothers. Place one smoother against the side of the cake level with the top edge, take the other smoother and gently ease/push the paste on the top of the cake against the side smoother forming an angled edge. Place the 12 cake onto the 12 round cake drum. Place the three remaining cakes on their respective cake boards. Cover the 11 cake with the pale purple. Cover the 12 and 10 with Culpitt white. ASSEMBLY/DOWELLING Please be reminded that for tiered cakes dowels will be needed for support. For each of the tiers in the design shown (apart from the top tier) dowels have been used three for the smaller sized cakes and four for the bottom two sizes. For more information on how and where to dowel a cake correctly and safely and to give maximum stability, see Cakes from Concept to Creation by Kathy Moore.

2 1 VEINING 8 TIER Cake Splash petal pink dust 1. Practice on a small piece of first. Too little paste colour will give only a weak veining effect, while too much colour may not disperse evenly and the result could be too heavy. 2. Knead the white into a smooth ball and flatten slightly. 3. Use a cocktail stick to add some petal pink dust colour in lines to the paste. Fold paste over and roll out to achieve the veining effect. 4. Cover the 8 cake. 2 LACE TIER House of Cake blossom cake lace Colour Splash white dust Colour Splash pink petal dust Colour Splash pale pink dust White: Use a white covered sugar paste tier and add the House of Cake readymade lace pieces - these are pearl in colour so use the Colour Splash white dust to achieve a white finish.

Dust with the Colour Splash pearl dust. Trim the paste to follow the shape of the rose pattern at the top and bottom edges.

4 5 DAHLIAS Colour Splash petal pink dust Colour Splash leaf green dust See list for details on tools required on back page Dahlias are made of a series of graduating circles of petals, so using a daisy cutter allows the petals to be cut out as one piece rather than individual petals. After the bud stage, it is preferable to allow each petals layer to dry before proceeding to the next layer to allow the petals to sit separately from each layer. The finished flower takes approximately 10 layers of petal giving around 140 petals in total. You can cut out a number of layers, form and leave to part dry whilst working on the next layer which saves time. Dahlia s come in all sorts of colours, shapes and sizes. Make your Dahlia to suit your colour scheme and add more layers if required to obtain an even, well balanced shape. Colour some white Squires SFP pink (or colour of your choice). The amount you need will depend on how many flowers you want to make. Centre Using pink petal paste, make a small ball using approximately 1g of paste. Attach to the 18# gauge wire with edible glue and colour the top of the ball with Colour Splash leaf green dust. Daisy cutter size 1 2 layers Roll out some pink paste thinly and cut out the small daisy shape. Transfer to a petal pad and smooth each of the petals using either a Jem no.12 veining tool or the small end of the dog bone tool. Lightly moisten the ball of paste and attach the layer of petals until the ball is completely covered and the petals overlap each other on the top. For the next layer, repeat as for the first but elongate the petals slightly and allow the petals to slightly sit away from the first layer as if the flower is just starting to open. Moisten the base of the flower and partway up the first layer of petals to secure in place. Daisy cutter size 2 1 layer Roll out the paste and cut out a shape. Using a cocktail stick, roll each petal from side to side to allow a tube/whorl to form. Moisten the base of the flower only and attach the whorls to the bud. Allow the whorls to sit up from the flower bud see image. Leave to dry. Daisy cutter size 2 3 layers Add 30 50% white petal paste to lighten the pink. 1st layer repeat as above and attach to flower. 2nd and 3rd layer repeat as for first but leave petals just slightly curled. Leave these layers to partially dry before attaching. Attach using edible glue to the base of the bud. Leave to dry until firm. Daisy cutter size 3 2/3 layers Add 30 50% white petal paste to lighten the paste. Repeat as before for the final 2/3 layers, ensuring they are dry before attaching. Calyx Use a small pointed daisy cutter and green petal paste. Attach a small ball of green paste to the base of the flower and mould to create a gentle curve Roll out the paste and cut two layers of petals. Smooth and attach to the back of the flower shaping over the curved mound. Colour with Colour Splash leaf green dust. Finishing Sparingly dust some of the petal tips pink. - you may very carefully steam to set the dusting. Glaze the calyx.
