Happy Birthday Kat!
This birthday cake has a spring basketweave on the sides and is filled in with royal icing flowers and text piped on like vines in in a wandering garden.
Once the royal icing dries in shape and the leaves and details are added, these flowers really are quite cute!
The basketweave design is a classic Wilton skill. I think that my icing was a little bit dry, which gave it a great look similar to fraying straw that suited the theme well.
