My Graduation Cake - Wilton Course 1

After a good 4 weeks of lessons, i've finally graduated from the Wilton Cake decorating Course 1. I had specially requested to add in the clowns cos' i know my daughter will be delighted to see them. And guess what's her reaction? Need i say more? :)

My 1st cake decorating lesson

I’ve never thought of attending any cake decoration class if not for the fact that I chanced upon the beautiful works of others decorated cakes, with those cute figurines using fondant/sugar-paste, when sourcing for a cake for my darling daughter. It was not a cheap one though, but my hubby gladly pays for the cake. During that time, I was in preparation for the birth of my 2nd baby and not in the most appropriate moment to pick up a new skill. It was only when my hubby brought home the cake I had order from another lady on-line, I was simply hooked and determine to learn how to decorate a cake!!

It was only after my maternity, and then I got my hands on to learn cake decoration. I started out with the most basis, ie. The Wilton Method of Cake Decorating – Course 1. However, prior to this, I do not have any previous experience and the 1st cake I decorated was a disaster. I didn’t even know that what I had prepared for the 1st cake decorating class was actually only “crumb-coating” of the cake. Hahaha.. and it looks funny. The stars on the cake was a more beautiful sight though.. Hurray, a beautiful starts to the path of cake decorating…
