Christmas cake

We will probably wait until after Christmas to sample it.
I have always used white icing but couldn’t resist this ready roll golden icing that came with a packet of gold powder. Every now and then it’s good to take the easy option.

It looks magical, never seen anything like this before! Beautiful shot and light. Hope it tastes as good as it looks.

Gold looks very festive with a touch of added luxury.

That raises my appetite for sweets quite a few notches. Looks delicious. If you need help to finish it off, i can help.

[Mags]

Beautiful job!

Nothing wrong with easy at all and the older you get the more you will appreciate that. Especially in this case when it looks so elegant!

i wonder how gold tastes -- expensive? classy? rich? metallic? 😊

How festive. I hope it tastes half as good as it looks.

Such a festive cake!

I wish I could slip into that picture and sample the cake--after it's cut, of course! I wouldn't dream of spoiling the beautiful effect of the golden icing. It looks like some of that marzipan type that I see--mostly in magazines or baking shows. Have never tried it, but then I don't do a lot of baking and certainly not as elaborate as this Christmas cake!

Looks like a great cake, good luck resisting until Christmas
