I made a fruit cake from a Delia Smith kit from Waitrose - really good cake and the instructions were a doddle to follow - and the results were exactly what you'd expect from Delia; perfect.
Marzipan and paste all from the supermarket and I just had a go. Surprisingly the marzipan and paste went on smoothly but as I made the red ribbon from sugar paste too it was too soft to hold it's shape very well so the bow looked a little tired, but the family all admired it and I was happy with what I'd achieved. Certainly encouraged enough to have another go, work on getting better and learn how to do it properly.

That's a pretty neatly wrapped "parcel" - it's hard to cover square cakes - this is a good show matey! Well done!
