Cake, anyone?
When my daughter & I signed up to do the Wilton Level 2 cake decorating class, it seemed like May would be the perfect time to do it... ha!

Oh well, amidst it all we learned how to make little gum paste flowers and the classic roses. Tonight was our grand finale where we each made a cake using flowers we'd made earlier in the course. We were a little rushed getting cakes baked & iced, and making multiple batches of buttercream icing, so our cakes were pretty quickly thrown together, but we are pretty pleased with the results.

They are gorgeous, you can put your papercrafting skills to work making cakes...you can even make a card to match!
Beautiful cakes - I guess you two got the baking talent genes in our family! Can't wait for you to do the wedding cupcakes! B.
How fun! Looks yummy and beautiful. Are you planning to start a new business? A mother-daughter business? Just keep it in the family. Love your cakes!
Beautiful job ladies! Your flowers are gorgeous.
I bet it was fun to take this class together.
