Daisy Cake

1. 1

   Place cake on a serving board. Thinly spread the jam over the top and sides.

2. 2

   Knead the icing until it becomes soft and smooth. Cut off one-third; set aside. Roll out the remaining icing on a surface dusted with confectioners' sugar to a circle large enough to completely cover the cake. Place over the cake, smoothing down the sides with the palms of your hands. Trim excess icing from the base.

3. 3

   Gather the icing trimmings into a ball; add the food coloring. Knead well until evenly coloured. Roll out to a small round. Cut out a 2-inch round using a pastry cutter. Place in the center of the cake. Wash your hands and the board.

4. 4

   Roll out the reserved icing. Cut out 9 petal shapes. Arrange on the cake, sticking on with a little water. Decorate with ribbon and bees.
