Cakes by Steph

There are few women who don’t enjoy a bit of shopping.  This cake was created for a lady who loves to shop.  She is a co-worker of my husband’s and they are celebrating her birthday tomorrow at work.   So for this I created a purse cake and a shopping bag … after I finished I thought the shopping bag could be interpreted for just a gift bag but really either work for the occasion!

The purse is about 6″ wide x 6″ tall.  The gift bag is 7″ long x 6″ wide and 4″ tall.  Everything is edible except the wires inside the handle to form it   Even the “tissue paper” in the gift is fondant.  The purse is painted using a pearl dust to make it shimmer.
