My friends threw me and Tom a surprise engagement party at the weekend, so I made them all little Tiffany box cakes to say thank you.
1
Start off by cutting your sponge cake in to neat cubes. My ones were 4" by 4".
2
The trickiest part of this project is getting the icing the perfect colour of blue. I used 3 drops of blue and 1 drop of green to get mine just right. Roll out the icing to get a nice even colour.
Dye two thirds of your icing a nice Tiffany blue colour.
Make sure to dust your rolling pin and surface with lots of icing sugar.
3
Roll out a square of icing big enough to cover a cube. Make scores outward at each corner.
4
Carefully fold the icing over the cake cubes, folding the overlap under at the edges and pinching the edges in to neat ridges. Dust off any excess icing sugar.
5
Roll out the white icing and cut in to long 1" wide strips.
6
Lay a strip of white icing across the box.
7
Lay a second strip across the other way. Take another strip and fold the edges in to the middle. Pinch in the middle to make a bow and place on top of your cake.
8
Decorate all of your cakes and you're done!

Serve with gummy rings :D
