Gorgeous New Shabby Faux Fabric Cakes!


Hello Darling Friends! I have been at it again!
Recycling foam to make these darling faux cakes!

I think they are so pretty displayed on my cake platter and
they do not make me fluffy as my real chocolate does!

If you have the patience...this is such a fun afternoon (in the comfort of home) project.

So pretty with clusters of roses and other pretty delightful flowers!
I typed a tutorial for these just click on the purple "tutorial"
I will be sharing this faublousness with
My Romantic Home
and
How Sweet the Sound

Big Squishy Hugs,
Olivia

    Your little cakes are just darling on your sweet cake stand. I bet they were a lot of fun to make! I just made some from foam and wall spackling (icing) and I had a blast! Hope you have a blessed weekend and a happy Pink Saturday!

    Love Tammy

    Ooooh these cakes might be safe in my house!!! Well at least they couldn't be eaten, but they might grow legs and walk away! These are deliciously yummy! ~~ Beautiful and precious on a plate!

    So pretty! I had these in different sizes when I taught for a company called Wilton, to display for the cake decorating classes I taught. We called them cake 'dummies'~ lol~ but I like faux cakes better :)
