Happy 3rd Birthday LBT. I wish you long life, have a good team work and continuously give benefits to the members.
I finally could submit this assignment on time.
I made this birthday cake on last Saturday. The cake base that I chose was Lapis Surabaya (Triple Layered Cake) because this cake is my favourite.
This cake is very popular in Indonesia, known for its high quality and expensive price. It is very tasty and the texture is very moist.
Triple Layered Cake consist of two layers of vanilla cakes and one layer of chocolate cake, with strawberry jam in between the layers. The number of egg yolks used in this cake is unbelieveably huge, 30 egg yolks.
I chose flower theme cake decoration because I really love flowers. It creates a sense of freshness and vivacity. The decorative material was made of fondant rather than butter cream because fondant looks more attractive, neat, faster to shape, and easily available in supermarkets. White and pink were chosen because they are bright colours and symbolise positive emotions.
I used fondant cutter to create the flower shapes and letters. After the flowers were spread on top of cake surface, I put beads at the centre of each flower sheet. The flower that cover the whole surface of the cake imitates a garden.
I'm quite satisfied with the result because the details are quite neat and the colours are consistent. Overall, it was amazing. Also, the letter shaped fondant cutter has helped me to create beautiful letters which said "Happy Birthday LBT"
I present this cake to celebrate LBT's birthday. I hope LBT likes it.
