Rebecca Sutterby from Sugar Creations, shared a few thoughts with us about her creation…
“The customer asked for a Nursery Rhyme theme and let me run wild with it. I LOVE it when they give me creative freedom! For the Humpty Dumpty figure and the cow, I covered Rice Krispie treats with modeling chocolate and then added gumpaste details. In the other figures, I used large gumballs inside the heads and bodies. They take up space so that you use less gumpaste or fondant and they also make the figure lighter. I also did a color wash over the brick to give it some depth. I mixed ivory airbrush color with vodka & painted it on. Then I went back with vodka on a paper towel and “erased” the paint from the high points of the brick.”
Incredible, isn’t it? I just had to highlight all of the different elements to this design… I didn’t want you to miss any of it! This cake is so impressive at first glance and then when you really start looking…. it’s even more amazing! I absolutely love how Rebecca seamlessly worked all of these nursery rhymes into one design. Not to mention that the base of the cake is a 3D book. Can it get much cuter?
A huge thank you to Rebecca Sutterby of Sugar Creations for sharing her awe-inspiring Nursery Rhymes Cake with us today! It is a delight for both the young and the young at heart!

I absolutely adore this cake! However, I cannot figure out where the mouse and clock fit into the finished product?
Cakebaker says
I am in search of nursery rhyme/storybook cake ideas for a cake for my Daughter who is about to leave her office to have a baby. The cake will be part of her leaving morning tea. This is just the sort of thing I had in mind to have the nursery characters on/ around the cake.
I am curious where does the mouse ran up the clock fit into the main cake?

The mouse and clock were featured on a separate 1st birthday ‘smash’ cake.
