The Last Class Cake

I know, I suddenly stopped writing about the cake decoration classes I was taking at Wilton’s. Well, they were finished at the end of August, the second class! I was very fun and there was way less people than the first one, what an advantage! Every Thursday we leaned flower techniques using Royal Icing, and also Color Flow! We diligently did different types of flower and saved them in long plastic columns called (flower curlers).
The last day we leaned how to do basked weaved with buttercream icing and, to decorate using the sugar flowers we had made the previous weeks.
The end result (in my view) was a beautiful cake that was very hard to eat, because we didn’t want to break it! And though other things got in the way of me, the camera card, and the computer I had to put them up for all to see!!
Sadly school took first place and has to use Thursday night for a Menu class, so cake decorating class 3 will have to wait until December!

The Future Decorator!!

So, I did some decorating. Last week I attended my fist hands on cake decorating class at a local Michaels. Just as all arts and craft stored do, Michaels offers classes by

Wilton
Now let me tell you that I have always loved decorating, Me and my mom used to do it just modestly, nothing fancy, no decorating bag, or triple star tip. Okay, I didn’t even have an icing spatula, but that’s all ended! I sprung and bought a $90 started kit, that includes piping bags, many tips, spatulas, piping gel, cake cutters, icing tip, colors, cleaners, etc. And they all came enclosed in a beautiful carrier box! I love it to death, I even though about a picture and framing it above my bed… I’m kidding … of course!
So, last Thursday out white iced cake traveled on a display board to Michaels to be decorated. I was really exited! They taught us starts, writing, frames, lines, and design transfer. At the end of the class everyone decorated their cake to their fancy.
I’m proud to say the teacher loved our cake!! I couldn’t wait to eat it!! Mom and me headed across the street to the local Mickey’ D’s and bought two coffees, to share a piece of cake. Then I got home and took those famous pictures.


Tomorrow is the third class!! And this time it’s cupcakes, I’ll tell y’all how they came out later. HOLD ON!
