One half of Juniper Cakery celebrated her 30th birthday on the 22nd of December. As a cake and confection creator a resplendent, show stopping cake was in order so we created this elegant Wedgwood Jasperware inspired macaron tower for the occasion. It’s adorned with fondant cameos, handmade ivory sugar roses and silver leaves, shimmering pearls and glistening silver vanilla macarons! Inside it’s delicious vanilla cake filled with home made raspberry confiture and vanilla pod infused buttercream.
Due to the sheer volume of bespoke cakes, cupcakes and macarons we’ve had to create in the run up to Christmas the macarons on this cake are purely ornamental yet still edible (we’ve festooned the tower section with macaron shells as opposed to fully sandwiched macarons). Sometimes a little sacrifice needs to made when it comes to our own personal cakes.
All of the delicate and soft roses on this cake are completely hand made! This process takes a good few hours, a pair of steady hands and a great deal of patience. We placed three on the board and dotted them around the tower with glistening silver leaves nestled amongst them all.
