BRUSH EMBROIDERY Brush embroidery is an Australian technique in which designs are piped on the cake and then smoothed with a damp paintbrush to give the semblance of embroidery. It is an ideal method for duplicating the lace of a bride's dress on a wedding cake and looks exquisite white on white. However, it shows up more effectively where there is a contrast between cake color and 'embroidery', e.g., white on a colored background. In this hands-on class, you will complete and take home plaques with your samples.
