This sugarpaste Tatty Teddy was a challenge that Jan gave me for her daughter, Sue’s, birthday celebration last month.  Sue’s twin boy and girl are now a year old and this Tatty Teddy had to be especially for her twins.  It was Jan’s idea that the teddy would hold the blue and pink balloons which was at the same time a cute and challenging idea.  I wired the sugarpaste balloons, popped the length of covered wire into the cake and then disguised the wires with the twirled ribbons of the balloons.  Tatty Teddy was really fun to do and I loved adding the detailed patch and patchwork paws.  I added a spray of blue and pink sugarpaste buttons around the bottom of the cake and wrapped the board in a matching ribbon to complete this really cute cake.
