The 'Big Bang' Engagement Cake

 Its generally easy to create a cake for someone when they order a cake, as they give a set of ideas and I just have to project that onto a cake.

It becomes a bit more difficult when you have to make a cake for yourself, however, because I know what I can do, and therefore have millions of ideas in my head at a time.

 Fortunately, we have a colour scheme picked out for the wedding so that made it a bit easier.
I eventually found a few cakes I liked on the net, and went from there.
This was the result - a two tiered vanilla sponge cake in purple and green swirls, with vanilla buttercream frosting.
Enrico made the toppers once again - they are just too adorable.
This is the first cake I have made with an 'exploding star' topper - and I absolutely love it.
There were matching cupcakes in purple and green cases with star toppers.
The stars, spots, beads and stripes are all made with fondant.
