My good friend Josie knew that I recently completed a class in sugar flowers, and decided that her mother's birthday cake would be a good chance for me to practice what I learned. Josie's Mom loves flowers and even participates in some kind of horticultural society, so it was important to me to get this one right. She asked for a simple vanilla cake layered with chocolate mousse (I used rich dark Belgian chocolate) and decorated with orange lilies. I opted for the calla lilies, because honestly, they are super easy to make. I hand painted each one after they dried, and used a simple ribbon to accent the cake. I wanted to keep this simple and clean, to show off the pretty orange flowers.
