My good friend and photographer Chester D.M. (thanks for the photos of this cake!) wanted to surprise his niece with a Twilight-inspired birthday cake. I’ve seen quite a few Twilight cakes, but I haven’t really seen a sculpted Twilight cake yet. I used the chess piece on the cover of Breaking Dawn, and The Cullen Crest as inspiration for this cake.
I only had time to decorate this cake on the day of the party! It was stressful, but well worth it; she loved it! She’s a true Twilight fan!
This video demonstrates using a Pencil Design transfer technique on gumpaste to make The Cullen Crest. This tutorial is dedicated to birthday girl Nica, and all the Twilight fans out there!
Supplies:
Gumpaste
Rolling pin
Exacto knife or Scalpel
Toothpick or Chopstick
Parchment Paper
Cullen Crest printout
Lemon extract or Vodka mixed with luster or petal dust color of choice!
thank you for the really good cake!!!!!!!
You’re welcome! You’re the best preteen I know!!
Wow, now that takes some talent! Definitely perfect for a Twilight fan!
Ohhh Wow this is crazy amazing!!!… I am impressed!
Oh, well done you! I wouldn’t attempt this if you paid me to do it! I used to be a big Twilight fan but then I read the last book and saw the movies… ugh. I’ll always love the first book though.
Thank you!!
I jump at the chance to make sculpted cakes and challenge myself! This was for a special Twilight fan who told me all about the significance of the Queen piece!
I must admit I haven’t read the books. :blush: The shaaaame! I will try to one of these days. But for now, I enjoy looking at the cute guys in the movie! ^_^
