Heart of Roses Wedding Anniversary Cake:For A Blogger Friend: April 2008

In one post, Gloria http://www.canelakitchen.blogspot.com/ mentioned 25 April 2008 as her wedding anniversary date. So, here's to you, Gloria ...a beautiful mind.., wishes for a very happy wedding anniversary ! May you both always keep shining in glory ! The butter cake was made by my friend, who bakes wonderful cakes and decorated by me.
Wishes to you at Santiago, Chile from me from Botswana, Africa !
I dedicate this simple, plain yet a beautiful heart cake to you !

  1. Anamika,

    The cake looks awesome. But in the pic' the red rose doesn't look bright when compared to white. Is it coz of too much flash.

  2. hi priya
    yes,the flash was bright,was taken in the evening in the room and because of the glass plate and white background,the roses' pictures did not come that well as i had envisaged.thank you so much for the observation,it will help me to improve more.

  4. Hi, the cake is beautiful, as usual.. would like to ask you something. Here in Malaysia the weather is very hot. So for my cake, is it ok to just glaze the cake with apricot jam and then put on the fondant ? Coz I've tried putting a buttercream crumb coat first but the whole cake was melting and mushy after I put fondant on top of the icing coat. I've never use marzipan before. What is your suggestion ? I think Botswana has similar weather. Thank s very much.

    thanks for passing by.
    you are right..after glazing the cake with apricot jam, you can straight away use fondant.I do it this way. Glzae with apricot jam, apply a layering of marzipan,then apply the fondant. Two layers of fondant will give a good finsh while marzipan will keep the cake in good taste and prevent faster drying of its content.I hope it helps. Want to see more of your ventures, eh !

  29. Anamika - I peeked at this cake a little while ago but did not have time to comment. It is beautiful. My friend and I were just at the rose nursery, and she bought a deep velvety red hybrid tea rose, named "Chrysler Imperial!" Your cake is reminding me of that! Go here and see what I mean :)
