Cakes and Cake Decorating Class

I've been MIA because of school but I'm hoping to get back into the groove of things. I've made countless blogs in the past and tend to give up after 5 posts but I'm determined not to do that with this blog. I took a two week long cake and cake decorating class and it was an amazing experience. There were so many tips and tricks I learned about baking and decorating that I couldn't have learned any other way. My teacher owned and operated an amazing bakery close to my town and now works at an extremely successful bakery. The bakery he owned is one of my favorite places to get cake. Anyways, here are some of the cakes I've made since school started. I plan on making a post about how to make a princess cake, which is my favorite cake on earth. Also I'm going to re-do my strawberry shortcake and perfect it before making a blogpost about it as well.

Making a wedding cake was one of the most exciting/challenging things I've ever done. It took so much time and effort and there were times I just wanted to sit down and cry and times I wanted to drive back to school to work on my cake. I learned a lot from making this cake. I had always feared making a tall multiple tiered wedding cake but I realized this was the perfect opportunity to practice. I still have so much to learn and I'm extremely excited to practice my skills in school.
