This is my Godmother’s birthday cake, and she was thrilled!
She’s a keen bird watcher, and I was lucky in that she said I could do the cake any way I pleased, as long as the Pel’s Fishing Owl – her favourite bird – was on the cake somehow.
Before I settled on the chocolate cake tree stump with a rice krispy treat owl, I considered doing a simple cake decorated with sugar paste owls, and I considered doing a 3D owl in cake, but I really wanted to try the tree stump!
I used Zoe’s Fancy Cakes tutorials for the tree stump, which I have been dying to try, and I am very pleased with my final result.
