A family tree cake for a very special someone who turned 70 this week.
The tree stump was four thick layers of classic vanilla sponge filled with vanilla buttercream and finest strawberry jam. I airbrushed the outside to get that realistic bark 🌲
The sapling had the names of all 14 family members on each sugar paste leaf, who were gathering to celebrate this special birthday. The cake also had to travel from Scotland to England so it was wrapped safely in lots of bubble wrap to help it survive the journey 😅
