Cake Decorating Fun
This weekend I did something I've wanted to do since I was about 10. I took a cake decorating class at the local cake supply shop! It was a 4 hour workshop, and I really loved it.
There were 9 of us in the workshop. We each got a Styrofoam cake to decorate and lots of parchment paper to practice on.
Everyone thought the basket weave technique was pretty cool. It took a long time, so I only went half way around.
We also learned a few borders, some small flowers (the teacher made those blue ones), and what every girl wants to learn...roses! Mine turned out surprisingly well.
I got a set of tips a few weeks ago so I could practice at home. I can't wait to do some more frosting art. I wish that cake had been real. mmmmm

Roses are hard to do! I tried once and failed miserably!
Wow! That cake looks great and your roses look fantastic.
Your decorating looks fantastic! Hard to believe that was your first class!
Wow, that is awesome!! But I'm a sucker for some cake and I might have found myself eating it - foam base and all - when others weren't looking.
Beautiful job!
You mean that's not real? It looks so good! You did a great job. I would love to take a class like this some time. :)
