How’s this for the bodger, I mean builder in you life?
This white iced cake has been surrounded by red bricks cut from orange/brown sugar paste/fondant.
The dents are made with a bone tool before leaving then to dry. When dry they can be assembled around the cake using ivory coloured royal icing as mortar.
You can’t see the back view of our builder model but I can assure you he does have the obligatory “builder’s bum” and mug of tea!
A few tools have been added to help him in his quest, such as trowel, spirit level and hammer!
If you have a DIY fanatic in your midst, why not give it a try?
