This has been quite the learning experience but in a really great way. It tuned out much the way I expected and with the learning curve not being as bad as I expected. Here are the sheets of chocolate rolled out to dry so that I could construct the box. Then there were about two dozen red velvet cake balls that were placed in gold cups for the "candy" portion.
Then there was building the box and piping the details. I also built the lid so that it could be opened. The sheet cake on the inside was lemon blackberry. After making a "tray" for the "candy" it was placed on top.
The names were piped on in chocolate. CRU stands for Clinical Research Unit (they are the GCRC). If you can see the small beading work, that is chocolate as well. I used a 4mm bead maker to make those tiny little pearls. I wanted to do so much more in the way of decoration but just simply ran short of time. More images will be on FB and the website.
