Sure she can put together a pretty impressive My Little Pony cake, but I challenge Shauna to match the English woman who made this Prince William and Kate Middleton cake
. You know, the next time she has a spare 80 hours.
According to the BBC:
A Sussex woman has created a cake in the likeness of Prince William and Kate Middleton to mark the couple’s wedding.
Michelle Wibowo, of Burgess Hill, West Sussex, spent 80 hours sculpting the fruit cake into busts of the prince and Miss Middleton.
The pair have been covered with apricot jam, 10kg (22lb) of marzipan and 10kg (22lb) of icing sugar.
The cake has also been airbrushed with colours to make the royal couple’s features more realistic.
The creation will be the centrepiece of a royal themed wedding cake competition at the Ideal Home Show at Earls Court, west London.
Ms Wibowo, who runs a firm called Sugarart, said: “I used this cake competition as a great opportunity to do something different, other than the usual traditional decorated round tiered cake people normally expect for a wedding cake.
“It was really a challenge for me to do this cake. It’s hard work, but I really enjoyed making it.”
The official Royal Wedding china range bears the couple’s entwined initials in gold and silver surmounted by the coronet of Prince William and the wedding date.
The china is handmade for the Royal Collection in Stoke-on-Trent using methods that have remained unchanged for 250 years. Each item is individually decorated and then embellished with several layers of burnished gold and platinum before a final layer of gilding in 22-carat gold is applied by hand.
The pillbox comes is a presentation box and wrapped in white tissue-paper printed with designs inspired by the wall hangings in Clarence House.
