Here's something I didn't know until the other week...when smoothing sugarpaste on a cake I've always used my hands or smoothing tools...well try this...break off a pebble sized piece of spare sugarpaste in the same colour used to cover the cake and rub it over the surface...it gives a lovely sheen and as it is soft, it moulds to the shape of the cake and doesn't leave any lines or square edges...gives a lovely smooth finish too...
if you already know this just ignore me, but it's another revelation to me!!!!

can't wait to see it! i really need to get some wedding cakes done, there's not much money in the novelty birthday cake market...or maybe I'm just a bit of a soft touch when it comes to pricing!
