"Welcome" Cake

It's been awhile since I made carnations. However, I was asked to make a cake with red, purple and white carnations for a co-worker. Her father is coming to visit from Australia and she wanted to have a "welcome" cake for him when he got here.





I made the carnations and thought that they just needed something extra so I added edible glitter to the petals. It looked great. The carnations shimmered. It almost gave the appearance of dew drops on the flowers.

The cake turned out beautiful and my co-worker and her dad loved it!
