I've always liked cake decorating. Ever since my children were born I've always made them birthday cakes. I've made a bunny, a teddy, a steam engine, a pirate ship - just to name a few. This may sound impressive, but the truth is that they were pretty basic cakes. I bought books on cake decorating, and read them from cover to cover, but I was always too afraid to try making all the beautiful cakes I drooled over. I was fascinated by fondant-covered cakes, but when my first attempt to cover a fruit cake about 6 years ago went awry, I never tried it again.
Then something happened. I accidentally tuned into a cake decorating competition on TV, and was riveted. I watched those talented professionals decorate the most incredible cakes and something inside me said, "You can do that!". So I mustered up all my courage, spent a fortune on cake decorating equipment, and went for it.
This blog is a record of the results of my decision to try my hand at cake decorating. Enjoy!
