Thrift Store Finds Turns into Stunning Cake Designs

August 09, 2024

Nancy’s latest find from her local Thrift Store in Calgary was this pretty doily and she knew it would make the perfect cake design! Below are her tips for getting crisp results. 

• Choose a design with several perforations
• Iron the doily so it sits flat over the cake
• Once ready to remove, try to lift all corners at once
• Decorate the cake just before serving so the design doesn’t melt
