We would all weigh a gazillion pounds but every one worth it from your scrumptious creations!

Boy, that one looks like glass -- like an ornament covering the cake. Nice job!

This is amazing! The figures remind me of glass sculptures. I love the clear-ice look with the white cake.

Absolutely elegant! I agree with catbird, it looks like glass. You never fail to amaze me over and over again, alek0.

One more, this one is also rather simple but I didn;t have time, too much work lately:   The cake is almond-lemon-honey crunchy base, almond-lemon sponge, strawberry+rose petals jam, raspberries, and whipped cream with lemon, cloves and cardamom. Rose is made of gumpaste and this time I'm quite happy how it turned out, though I still need more practice for roses, they can be better. |

Alek, do you airbrush the gumpaste or is it hand-painted?

It is hand-painted. I don't have an airbursh, since I think something like that might make Sophie's asthma worse.

Well, that's a fantastic job. It does look airbrushed.

your cakes are really very beautiful. they are nicer than other bakers as you really have passion and heart in making those cakes. If only you live in my country, i definitely buy your cakes. They are so nice to be wedding cakes, nicest than those provided in hotels.
