Surprise Birthday Cake


This cake was ordered as a birthday surprise for Tracey, by her Mum Linda, for her 50th birthday party. The cake featured piped pearls, sugar roses, calla lilies and hydrangea flowers. 

I received some really lovely messages from Tracey and Linda after the party!

"A massive great big thank you for my stunning birthday cake it took my breath away. Only problem is I now don't want to cut it ! Feel very privileged to have had a cake made by sugar ruffles........" Tracey

"Tracy, was speechless when she saw her cake, she cried! Thank you so much for creating this beautiful cake for my daughters 50th Birthday, we absolutely love it, so many people have commented. Now all we have to do is get Tracy to cut into it as we are dying to taste it!" Linda
