LV Cake Sculpture at the V & A Museum


As always, terribly inadequate images, but finally here's a post on the V&A cake.
The occasion was Royal Wedding Weekend and this was exhibited throughout the Big Day and then eaten. I took design influences from Victoria & Albert's wedding cake, as their's was the original tiered cake and the first to use Royal Icing (so named for that reason). To highlight the commercialisation of the modern Royal family I made the cake gold coated and jewel encrusted like a big gaudy souvenir.

The cake was a rich spiced chocolate, with pear mousse buttercream and bucks fizz curd. The jewels and stained glass were hard candy.
