[@DhioneTavares]

Parabéns pelo seu trabalho!

[@lindafisher4841]

Thanks for the tutorial. Lambeth is harder than it looks…but the results are beautiful!

[@FinespunCakes]

It really is! Practice is the only way to get progress with Lambeth, there are definitely no shortcuts with Royal icing haha.

[@shwee1855]

For anyone that might find this helpful I use a wilton 362 in place of pme 44 Wilton 16 in place of pme 5. Wilton 3, 2 and 1 for the finer string works

[@FinespunCakes]

That’s great, thanks for sharing 🙌🏼

[@merika206]

‘Im so glad this technique is back. So pretty. ❤

[@paulaalexander9734]

How have I missed this, wow what a beautiful dress, she looks gorgeous Tracey. Xx

[@MiScusi69]

You don't need to measure the circumference. Just measure the diametre and multiply it by 3.14

[@flpcrmn8293]

Another remarkable creation.

[@aubreystalcup5452]

Stunning!! Your talent and skill are amazing!

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you so much :)

[@nataleekelly2496]

Oh my!! What stunning work you do! You really are so talented Alexandria!!! The piping the cake is already spectacular! Love the Wedgewood blue. 😍💙❤👏👏👏

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you :)!!

[@plantsforlife1120]

Such elegant and delicate work!! Your work is truly exquisite!! Though The background music is interfering with your vocal instruction due to the drum base.

[@hanandoaibes8456]

Thank you so much for sharing your precious technic❤

[@lisaanderson135]

Another gorgeous cake design! This is a great way to sharpen piping skills. I wanted to join the cake academy, but I’m just a home baker and don’t have a business. The wedding cake challenge was so much fun, though! Thank you Alexandria for your inspiring work ❤

[@FinespunCakes]

Hey Lisa, thank you!! There are many hobby bakers in the Academy if you'd like to join this time around :) lots of people who bake just for friends and family and just want to improve their skills and connect with fellow bakers. Either way, so glad you enjoyed the wedding cake challenge!!

[@lisaanderson135]

@@FinespunCakes I think I remember you mentioning there are hobby bakers in the group, so I apologize if I sound like a broken record. I loved our little cake community! It felt so welcoming and helpful!

[@FinespunCakes]

@@lisaanderson135 That is totally fine! I agree, it was lovely. It's been great in the academy too, so many encouraging people in there :) anyway, hope you get a chance to practice some piping!! This one is so much fun.

Beautiful creation, thank you for sharing 🎉

Thank you so much 😊

[@suzannahbeltz5192]

Hi! Quick question. Can you pipe royal icing on Swiss buttercream?

[@FinespunCakes]

Yes! You can definitely do it. It can be a bit tricky versus on fondant but it can be done 👍🏼

[@SD-wm2ko]

Thank you for sharing. Can’t wait to try this.

[@FinespunCakes]

Amazing, can't wait to see your work :) have fun!

[@cbusgirl]

Omg I'm so excited for this! Also can't wait for the academy congrats

[@FinespunCakes]

Yay! Thank you! Hope you join us and also give the Lambeth a try :)

[@re-alm9731]

Hi Alexandria... your work is impeccably beautiful. I do learn a lot from you. This is one of my favourite kind of decor...piping. Classic. Alexandria request you to please show more sugar flowers n leaves. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. God bless 🙏♥️

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you! There will be a new flower coming out next week :)

[@shwee1855]

MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE STYLE OF DECORATION. Love how elegant and sophisticated it makes a cake look, and a definitely good way to showcase a cake decorator's dexterity and craftsman ship. But the current trend of vintage piping that just haphazardly label anything vintagey as Lambeth is really getting on my nerves.

[@FinespunCakes]

Agreed, one of my favourites!! It really is so elegant and classic. Hopefully showing what real Lambeth is will help people understand :)

[@lacocinademomi]

❤❤❤❤

[@dhionetavarespimentel7136]

Parabéns! Muito lindo!

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@MJS0906]

Thank you for the tutorial. This is beautiful! Does it have to be royal icing or can it be done with buttercream or ganache?

[@supriyasathe7631]

So beautiful, can we use buttercream for icing instead of royal icing

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you!! For most of it, yes, but building buttercream up and making drop strings will be difficult

[@rubbiegwanzura124]

Sugar cakes has all that for free

[@dmpgchannel]

how did she prep the cake?

[@Minniescakery]

Can I pipe Royal icing on the buttercream ?

[@FinespunCakes]

Yes I’ve tried this before and it’s fine :) just be sure your buttercream is chilled

[@lamirada90638]

Can this be done with buttercream 😅

[@FinespunCakes]

You can try 😬 haha it will be tricky you have to make sure your buttercream is virtually bubble free but I think it can be done 👏🏼

[@lamirada90638]

@@FinespunCakes ok thank you😬😱😅

[@monica1518]

I'm italian....please....why you call it 'Lambert 'cake?

[@lilym6882]

Joseph Lambeth published a book about this style of cake decorating back in the mid 20th century. This is why this decorating style is named after him I believe

[@monica1518]

@@lilym6882 thank you very much!💐

Please make thee cake a darker color. , therefore to see all thee great work ., CAN NOT SEE ONE BIT.,
