Birthday cake with run-out

I made this cake for my daughters birthday yesterday. She loves Strawberry Shortcake and this is Honey Pie Pony’s little friend Honey Doodle.

I have use the run-out technique and Honey Doodle is made straight on the cake. First I traced the template to the cake by using a needle and marked all the lines. Then I outlined the bee with royal icing using no.2 tip. I have then flooded with royal icing thinned down with water

Next day when the icing was dry I painted the small details in the face with edible brown petal dust dissolved in clear alcohol. I attached a few sugar flowers and have used my Sugarcraft-gun to make robes to finish off the cake.

My daughter was thrilled when we took it with her to school:)

Happy Caking

    That is too cute. Is it similar to color flow we use in the US. It is so smooth and cute.
