The single-tier creation stacked up well and cost under $20 to make.

Between each layer Vanessa spread a creamy filling and smeared icing around the outside of the cake.

To create the ombre effect, she used three different colours and applied it through a piping bag before smoothing it out.

She then arranged artificial flowers on top of the wedding cake to complete the elegant look.
