Our traditional Christmas cakes are covered with Royal Icing - which sets hard as ice. And for wedding cakes too.

Although the draped effect makes me wonder if you have used fondant icing. Which you roll out with a rolling pin? You know your icing far better than I do, I'm only trying to get the translation right

Pleased to hear it. I was gutted when I visited Italy and saw all the beautiful tiny works of art made of marzipan. Tiny, exquisite, hand painted... oh, but they are marzipan. Yucky.

ETA - I keep thinking the crimson one is a cheese.
Sorry.
It would be a yummy cheese.
