1. Carving the Cake
Ganache is added between the layers of cake (you can find out more about ganache including how to make it here) and you’ll see the basic shape of the pram starts to take shape after carving the simple shapes.
2. Ganaching
3. Covering the Board
White sugarpaste is rolled out and then used to cover the board and attached separator and a texture mat is used to apply texture to the board.
Tracey follows this up by trimming the board and then paints the white sugarpaste using the airbrush and some violet chroma colour edible paint + black.

12. Finishing Touches
Tracey uses the airbrush with the purple colour to add some extra highlights to the purple areas of the cake and also opts to add black edible paint to the black sections which adds subtle yet effective shadow tones.
And that’s it, time to dance and have a drink as the cake is complete! We hope you enjoyed the course with Tracey and please share your images of this cake if you’ve had a go!
