Level: Beginner & Intermediate
The only thing cuter than a handbag cake is a mini handbag cake. Learn how to sculpt, cover and decorate a mini Chanel handbag and make some Coco-inspired cupcakes to feed everyone else. We will show you an easy and straightforward way of carving a handbag from a square piece of cake. Afterwards, you will make all the intricate little details which give handbag cakes the wow factor: the realistic zipper and zip pull, quilted stitching, C logo and handles. This is a great introduction to sculpting and covering 3D cakes with lots of detail. We will also show you how to make camellias (the signature Chanel flower) and gardenia out of edible sugar modelling paste, for decorating your cupcakes.
Topics covered:
- Making sugar flowers (camellia and gardenia) for cupcakes
- Creating the quilted look on fondant icing
- Carving cake to create handbag
- Covering cake with ganache and fondant icing
- Making logos
Take home: One mini handbag and 6 matching cupcakes
