  Cover a 20cm (8in) round sponge cake with 900g (2lb) of Lincoln green sugarpaste, on a 25cm (10in) cake drum. Cover the board with a strip of light green sugarpaste 150g (5oz).

  Roll out a piece of red sugarpaste and cut quite a thick rectangle approx. 10cm by 7.5cm (4in by 3in).

  Use a cocktail stick to mark lines all around the edges of the blanket, impress the lines deeply.

  Roll out white flower and modelling paste and cut 5 or 6 flower shapes using a daisy plunger cutter. Roll out a little red sugarpaste, cut the same number of blossom shapes and stick them on top of the white flowers using a little sugar glue. Mark a black dot in the centre.

  Place your picnic blanket in the centre of the cake using royal icing to secure in place. Add your teddy bears, plates, sandwiches and flowers.
