Up, up and away!

I love the variety of cakes I am asked to make in the Cakery, and I especially love a 3D cake challenge.

I was recently asked to make a cake which represented a British Airways passenger plane. It was made from my much loved Sponge cake with a vanilla bean buttercream.

I added the plane to a board decorated like the sky to give the impression the plane was in mid flight.
