Alice In Wonderland Cake

by Maria Inafuku

My theme cake is an Alice in Wonderland Cake. It is a topsy not so turvy cake.

How I Made my Whimsical Cake

The cake is made with cake decorating fondant, buttercream, and royal icing. Each layer is different. Every leaf has a various patterns and are dusted in colored powder.

The mushrooms are made with colored fondant and are painted with a brush, then and a hint of edible gold was added for a realistic effect. All of the characters were created to form a unique and interesting part of the cake.

The house is a cake layer covered with buttercream and fondant. Alice was made with fondant and all of the details were painted with a brush.

The pond is fondant and has a light glycerin coating to make it shine. After the cake was completed it was sprayed with edible glitter.

My Inspiration

I loved the scene when Alice grew too big for the house. This was one of my favorite parts so I knew that my cake had to be made like this. As an artist I want my cakes to be unique and not like any other. I enjoy making figures and creating. Anyone can buy a decoration and place it on top but it takes an true artist to make incredible sugar pieces.
