From Captain's Daughter to Army Mom: Check that off the List!
Nothing like a good cake decorating class to realize that this is not something I could ever do for a living... or even for fun! Not that I'm looking for a new career (I'm NOT!) but Good-golly, it's not as easy as it looks... I also discovered that I am way too type-A to decorate cakes. I spent most of my time cleaning up my work area and doing my best to avoid making a mess, which is not easy because icing seems to have a mind of its own.
off my List and appreciating the bakery workers at Whole Foods a little extra from now on!
The required elements of the assignment were to mix up and use four different decorating colors plus black to outline the indentations of our cake design. We used the number 4-rope tip to outline and the number 18-star tip to decorate.
Oh! Turns out that taking photos during class is not an issue since I'm not the only Blogger there. Several of my classmates were documenting the experience. Next week we'll learn how to make 15 different types of flowers and create clowns and baby booties to decorate cake squares and cupcakes. Thank goodness I have a week to rest up!

This classmate created Winnie the Pooh This woman's husband is Serving Kuwait - Great cake!
