Hand painted cakes are one of the most admired cake design trends of the moment and painting on cakes is one of the most versatile skills a cake decorator can acquire to add to their repetoire of techniques.\u00a0 Drawing and painting doesn’t come naturally to us all, but with a bit of practice there are lots of floral designs that one can easily master to create beautiful vintage style cakes.<\/p>\n

For those new to cake painting, check out our earlier feature here on Hand Painted Cakes<\/a> for tips and tutorials to help you get started.<\/p>\n

Our feature cake above, a stunning hand-painted wedding cake in vintage duck egg blue, is by Emily Harmston Cakes<\/a>. Emily has created a multi-dimensional effect on this cake by hand painting the branches, to which she then added painted floral appliques.<\/p>\n

Incidentally, this is a great tip for those who are new to hand-painting cakes – if you are reluctant to paint directly onto your immaculately iced cake, use cutters to make floral shapes, then paint the details onto the cut-outs and attach to your cake.<\/p>\n
