Throughout Wilton Course 2: Flowers & Borders, we used Buttercream Icing and Royal Icing. Royal Icing hardens quickly and is like candy. During the 2nd and 3rd class we made a variety of flowers that we then placed on our final cake during the 4th class.
The basket weave was a bit tedious, but was easier then expected- and it looks pretty neat too. Next time I would do another level on top as my border didn't end up covering as low as I thought it would, but I figure it's pretty good for a first attempt.
The birds were made using a colour flow/royal icing- another great technique to use.
I figure this would be a great Easter/Spring Cake.
