My Etsy store is NOW OPEN!!! Please visit at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/laurapoopie?ref=si_shop

This is a Louboutins shoebox birthday cake featuring a gumpaste high heel shoe that is SUPPOSED to be Louboutin shoe! LOL! I really tried! LOL! I have since learned that the Louboutin trademark is the red sole of the shoe so this gumpaste shoe was obviously not an exact replica. Se la vie! The cake is a yellow vanilla butter cake with a vanilla/almond buttercream icing and is sure to be delicious! The lid of the box was 2 pieces of foamcore I glued together, cut with my scroll saw, and then covered with fondant and airbrushed. The entire cake was airbrushed a beige color blending some Americolor airbrush colors. The board was also covered in fondant and airbrushed. The tissue paper emerging from the box is all pre-colored (by me) gumpaste. Hope you all like my first attempt at a shoebox cake and high heel shoe! :)

  • Great job. Keep up the good work.

  • Thank you so much! :0)

  • I just watched Anne's Shoe Tutorial(all three parts) and I think she had a good idea to model it on a real shoe(for shaping, etc) Christopher Garren has a beautiful platform shoe that he does that I wish I knew how to do. I think he had a mold made off of a, like, size 4 high heel shoe or something and they simply mold gumpaste platform, then heel and then work rest of shoe around it. I am going to go to payless and get a cheap shoe and try it with clay molding/putty stuff...will post if succe

  • Yes it's great tutorial! Let me know how it works out for you! :)
