Baptism Cross Cake

crosswmk3


This client asked for a very simple cake so that she wouldn't feel guilty cutting into it, but her 1 request was that we replicate the cross party favor she would be giving out at the party to have on the cake. The cross on the cake was made with fondant to look as exact as possible, and it was highlighted with swarovski crystals to mimic those found in the real cross. Here are close up pics of the real cross (on the left) & the fondant replicated cross (on the right).

We heard from the client a few days afterwards & she said the cake was not only delicious, but she was very happy with the overall reaction of her guests, which was that of disbelief that the cross on the cake was not actually a favor that was placed on the cake. We are happy we were able to able to successfully carry out her request!

  1. I am trying to do the same thing but have the cross made into a mold?

    Any suggestions? YOurs looks fantastic, but I'm assuming it's freehand???

    thanks,
