Googled around for CNY images to get inspiration - shortlisted some that could be done using buttercream but still not satisfied. I wanted something special, something different...
Then, on Chinese New Year eve itself (the day the cakes were due), I got inspired by some pretty ang pow packets and decided to recreate the peony flower using a method usually done using royal icing on a fondant cake - brush embroidery!
And's here's the result!
Can anyone guess which ang pow packet I referred to for this flower design? Drop me a line and the first person to guess correctly gets a 25-pc box of cupcakes!
This cherry blossom design was inspired by a pretty picture I saw on the web.
