I made this cake for Christmas holidays last year. The cake is a fruit cake. I covered the cake with marzipan and covered the marzipan with royal icing.

I used a large round nozzle to create the spiky snow-like effect on the cake. Its like piping stars on the cake and the only difference is that I used a round nozzle instead of a star nozzle. The pine trees are also of royal icing and I used a star nozzle for them. I got the idea for making the simple pine trees from this website. This is a very simple and easy way to decorate a Christmas cake. The whole decorating process took me only 1 hour. And cleaning up was also easy because royal icing is not greasy.

I have since gotten 5 order requests for the cake for Christmas this year. It’s a ‘lucky cake’ for me :)
