After a weekend decorating gingerbread cookies, it was then back into "normal" cake making!
I go to a French conversation class every week, and had been asked to give a presentation in French about my cakemaking. What better way to illustrate my hobby than making a Paris-themed cake for the class to share! I used to live in Paris and love the city, particularly in the Springtime (to paraphrase the Cole Porter song).
The cake was made with Fairtrade sugar, so I entered it into the "Fairtrade Bake-Off" competition which was launched on Facebook the day that I made the cake (hence the bag of sugar in the background) - I didn't win the top prize (although I did win a runner up prize, which was a box of Fairtrade goodies), but I had the consolation that I was pleased with the cake - and it tasted good!
Lemon madeira cake layered with lemon buttercream and lemon curd, covered in sugarpaste. Handmade Eiffel Tower made from royal icing using the run out technique. "Cherry blossom" side design with handmade branches and blossoms, adapted from my cherry blossom cake (fast becoming my signature cake).
Normally I try to stay away from sheet cakes, but I thought this one would be fun. I really like how it turned out. The diamonds are molded white chocolate, fondant bow, and small fondant pearls. Of course, I have now gone cookie crazy, so I kept thinking how much fun it would've been to make cookies to match. Is there a diamond cookie cutter out there somewhere? :)

Just returned from a fantastic weekend down in Winchester for the 10th Wedding Anniversary of some very dear friends. I went to university with Rachael in Paris (and we both subsequently worked there for the same law firm), so Paris is a place dear to our hearts - this cake was an absolute delight to research, plan and create.
The basic brief was that the cake should be themed around the iconic Art Nouveau Paris metro designs of Hector Guimard; the reference to Metro Line 10 had a double meaning (representing 10 years of marriage and also the Metro line closest to where R used to live - the metro stop names are from that line).
B has an art background, hence the the poster art on the bottom tier - we went predominantly for iconic artworks of the same sort of period as Art Nouveau, but made room for a poster of the film Amélie (R's favourite) given it's Paris setting and green poster!
The topper is based on the Porte Dauphine metro station and represents the happy couple and their two gorgeous children.
The handmade clematises are a nod to a favourite flower - I also wanted something with vines to fit in with the Art Nouveau theme and also the colourscheme.
There's so much detail on here that I plan to sort an album of more close up photos on my Facebook page www.facebook.com/CakesByNoMoreTiers to show the detail and explain the references (as usual with my cakes, everything has a meaning!). But just wanted to get an overall shot up first.
