Christmas Cake Decorating Part 2 – Royal Icing

Decorated Christmas Cake

I’ve finally finished my Christmas Cake and I’m quite pleased with it.  The Royal Icing part was actually quite easy and I had enough left over to let Oscar help me make some Christmas Tree shapes to decorate the top.  And as it’s Christmas we used a little bit of natural food colour to make them green.  The Royal Icing recipe is from here, and again I turned to google to find out how to use it, and found this video by Dan Lepard really useful.
