I had the privilege of being both bridesmaid and providing a wedding cake for friends in 2015.
This was the first cake I'd done using royal icing for MANY years, and did multiple practices. It was also my first foray into piping. I quite liked it!
Unusually, these were sponge cakes, which normally don't go with royal icing, but with perseverance, practice and sufficient layers of icing, I was able to provide royal icing, as the couple didn't want fondant.
The toppers are characters from a US tv show (the bride is from NY) and were brilliantly made by another bridesmaid.
