The First Commission

I have a very close friend who is a ceramic artist, and one of her professional friends asked if I could produce some cupcakes for her upcoming exhibition at the Ceramic Art London at the Royal College of Art.  So no pressure!

The brief was rococo design, rich colours, and 24 of them.  It took hours to ice them, but I was really pleased with how they turned out.

And here they are on display at the exhibition

And I found out only last month that the artist who commissioned them has kept a few in a box, because she loved them so much.

There was another chapter to this story though, so read on to the next post.....
