Sugarcraft and cake decoration
After taking a course, a few years ago, I took up sugarcraft as a hobby and I am now a member of the the British Sugarcraft Guild. The local Group of the British Sugarcraft Guild meet once a month in Camborne. I particularly enjoy making flowers, but as they are so fragile being made of sugar, I am planning to start making them in cold porcelain instead. |
