"Are you sure you did not attend classes"?

YES, I AM SURE, I DID NOT ATTEND CLASSES. I would definitely remember attending culinary school or baking/cake decorating classes. My inspiration comes from photos on the internet, the ideas my head and my children. I used play dough as a child and I loved art class in High School. Oh yeah... and I have been told many times that I have a very good imagination!

I believe you can do ANYTHING you chose to do! Google and YouTube helps alot too!!!

Cake Decorating using Tips...

I knew it would happen eventually!  Whenever I start something new or have an idea, I get excited but once I know I can actually do it...I get bored. 
 
I won't say I am entirely bored with cake decorating as yet because every cake I have done so far is different.  However, preparing the cake batter and getting it baked is the boring part so I get Ariana to do it...she needs some practice in that area still.  Sometimes she really amazes me with her ideas, as she has been watching YouTube videos and learning alot.
 
I think it is safe to say we've both come a long way in terms of using fondant and gumpaste so now we are ready to take on the challenge of using the decorating tips.  I was always nervous about this even though I never tried it.  I was lucky to get a 50% off coupon for Michaels so I went in and used in on the 55 piece tip set.  I thought I might as well get the entire set for half price, since we would be experimenting, and buying them individually can really add up in the end.
