Hey…Mario!
Well – here he is…my Mario, feeling on top of his own little world and in full control of the situation!
It has provided me with hours of entertainment and I hope everyone enjoys having a good look at all the little bits and pieces that I have put on there.
The whole of the big green pipe, complete with Mario, lifts off and can be kept as a memento and since it is made of really strong, reinforced sugarpaste it has set like concrete anyway and so would be a tough piece to eat! All the rest of the decoration is made from standard sugarpaste and so will be eaten as part of the cake. I hope it all goes down well!
Since I have made the cake with a running frieze of Mario’s world around the edge I thought it would be a good idea to try to video it so I could have a permanent reminder of what it was like…and since we have all this technology at our fingertips it seemed silly not to have a go – so , hopefully, I have a video of the cake doing a little pirouette at the end of this post.
I hope it makes you smile!!
