About this Bake
I spent a weekend with a friend and together we had a go at cake painting for the first time, each making our own gingerbread birdhouse and biscuits.
Top tip
Invest in a fondant icing smoother. Use good quality food colouring and ordinary paint brushes to paint your designs onto smooth fondant icing.
