Buttercream Galore

Yesterday, I spent all morning baking a birthday cake for my good friend vincent :D it was his birthday yesterday so Happy Birthday Vincent! 

In the past, i would usually make a Victoria Sponge cake topped with whipped cream and fresh fruits but yesterday i decided to try out buttercream frosting to ice my cake for the very first time.  

Here are a few pictures of what the finished product looked like from start to finish, hope you guys like it :)


A special thanks to my friend kerry, for helping me decorate the cake <3 <3 x

Half of the mixture separated into 2 cake tins
After spreading green buttercream frosting all over the cake, i have outlined the cake with blue buttercream using a star icing nozzle for a star/shell-like effect
cupcakes to form the 'Head', 'legs and 'tail'' for the 'Tortoise
i ran out of icing sugar so i substituted with Edible Wafer paper and used ready-made Designer Icing in Pink to write the birthday message on
The finished product :D Yay!!!
My first attempt at making a figurine with sugarpaste
