Week 7

Areas covered:-

1) Bows

Today we continued to work on the fruit cake we have been using for the past 2 weeks by creating bows.

We first created a plain bow by cutting the sugarpaste into strips and creating tails and loops.

We then created the centre piece for a largest bow by using the half ball mould to attach sugar pearls.

The quilting tool was used to give extra detail to bow number 2.

Bow three was a plain colour embossed with the small ivy cutter (my favourite)

Bow 4 involved using two colours to create a different design. Again I used the ivy cutter but this could also be done with spots and stripes.

The final bow was a parcel bow with the sugarpearl centre we had prepared earlier.

There is no lesson next week as it is half term. In the next lesson we will be doing border anglaise.
