:: WELCOME ::

i felt compelled to create this blog with the thought of all those who have helped me as i continue my journey of cake decorating. if not for those creative minds who were brave enough to put themselves out there i would not have learned so many wonderful things or been as inspired as i am. i am just starting on my path to greatness! (ha ha!) i hope to document my progress through this blog. give out tips i have learned. make more connections with the decorating world. and perhaps someday give someone a little inspiration myself. so welcome and thank you for stopping by!

2009 - Polka Dottie

Hannah Montana has ruined polka dots for me - I will forever remember that song from her movie when I think of polka dots!

Oh well.

This was a big cake and was transported for 45 minutes to its destination - where it of course was love by the birthday girl! I used a new tool to smooth the sides and I wasn't too happy with the results.

And I don't think I like the "fondant-on-frosting" look very much. That is something I struggle with right now. People do not care for the taste of fondant and want a cake iced, but to add fun details it is easier in fondant. I know that someday I will learn how to balance this. (i hope)

life brings experience and everyday i learn something new...
