I have finished decorating, deciding to keep it simple this year.

Simple but stylish :thumbsup: it'll be a shame to cut into it.
-
Classy but fun - I like it :thumbsup:
-
That's my kind of decoration. Very nice. For a friend's 40th I managed a chunky 40 in marzipan on a wonderful cake covered in thick chocolate... Just about the most basic you can get, but very effective - and even I could do it!
-
Lovely, I think I can ice but my hands and eyes do not agree...thats nice and classy!!!! :thumbsup:
-
Lovely job :thumbsup:
-
Oh I like it Bionic, very design-y - I made the picture bigger and it looks great. Don't like eating those little ball things though :-J
-
You've done a brilliant job there, Sally. :thumbsup:
-
Neat! Looks lovely. Perhaps we should all get a taste, too. You know, just to be sure that its as good as it looks :innocent:
I'll be icing mine next weekend, so will post the photo once it is done.
Don't be holding your breath, though... It won't look very stylish!
-
Star of David ? Christmas?....confused.com.....
expertly decorated very professional....
Love your worktop
-
Doug, It was the only star cutter I could get and didn't realise until you said that it was the Star of David.
I don't think anyone in my family will notice anyway.
That worktop is actually my table made in an Indian hard wood of some sort.

It looks wonderful, its at times like this I wish I was more into baking things.

To be honest I don't really like christmas cake. I enjoy making it more. ;D

looks great. I know my limitations so I'll stick to what I'm good at..................eating them ;D
-
That's stunning - what a clever idea :thumbsup:
-
I had four to ice this year so confess I went with the snow storm effect :yum: all done in about an hour :excited: yesterday. Still got a yule log to make but that will have to be next weekend.
-
What do you mean by the snow storm effect? Mine tended to look like drifting snow, but now I've discovered ready to roll icing it looks more like a bed that needs straightening. Tastes good though.
-
;D
Does anybody actually eat the icing? It's only sugar, after all... ??? Just horribly sweet. I thought the icing is just put on so it keeps fresh for longer.

Me! Me! Me! I love the whole thing, the cake+marzipan+icing. :yum: Trouble is, because almost everyone else likes either just cake, or no marzipan, or no icing, I often end up with corner pieces - and that's too much icing for the tiny sliver of cake that's inside it, even for me! :D
-
Pair of dentures for your Christmas then Sally :stocking: but I agree, you have to draw the line at corner pieces unless you're under 10 and your teeth are going to be renewed anyway. ;D
