November Birthdays


My office is really enjoying this cake decorating binge I've been on. They asked if I would do a cake for the November birthdays. As a November baby, I decided to take hold of my own destiny and accept the challenge. Can you tell which one is me on the 'Family Tree'?

Fondant


So, I completed the Fondant portion of the Advanced Wilton Class. Fondant does not taste as good as buttercream. Actually, it doesn't taste very good at all. Someone equated it to 'chewed gum'. So, I made the cake, took a picture, then pitched it...nothing to recycle.

Icing 101





























I had some dear friends over this weekend for an intense icing class. We went from 10am to 5pm. Yes, there was much talking, and even more icing sampling. But, in the end, there was a fabulous cake and precious cupcakes.
