Today I am making carrot cake. I started by mixing orange and flesh and light brown clay roughly. Carrot cake has quite a few tones in it so didn't mix the colours thoroughly so,they would all show.The circles for the cake are 2cm in diameter and I cut 4 to make a taller cake.
All the cake slices were brushed with powdered pastel with a brush to simulate the baked look and a slice cut out of each, I cut this before assembling the cake otherwise the icing would squeeze out (I found this out the hard way!!!)
I iced each cake layer separately to avoid squashing the icing out. The edges of the cake were textured with scrunched up foil,and a needle tool, to resemble crumbs. I assembled the cake and added tiny tiny carrots. Tada!!!
