Good Luck & Good Fortune



This has to be one of my new favourites! I was asked to do a fare well cake with a difference this week, and the idea was thrown around about doing a "good luck elephant" ( you know the famous elephant with its trunk pointing up) . So i came up with the idea of icing a polystyrene block and creating this thai style elephant  to hold up the cake.  I had so much fun doing this cake, from making the elephant to painting its tassels and prints. Something different and something new! ( please dont judge me on the rubbish photography... baby steps!)
