I've started getting paid orders. I had 3 cakes this last weekend and they all proved to be a hit. It's nice to get great feedback and even nicer when you get enquiries from people who saw and ate your cake.
I made a snake cake for a friends son. Never made a snake cake before and I have to admit the face was a challenge but I think I pulled it off. I tried to re-create the scaley skin my using the #104 tip. My god it took forever to finish but it was well worth it!!
Also made an Elmo cake for a 1st Birthday using the pattern transfer technique... finally my lessons are paying off!!
Lastly I made my nephew a Hawthorn AFL club inspired cake. Was very delicious.
I love experimenting with fillings. Chocolate cake can get a bit boring after you have churned out several hundred. So I made a nice lemon cake and filled it with passionfruit infused cream cheese filling. YUMMO!!! It proved a hit with everyone, including my very fussy husband.
So this week I have 2 orders, a chocolate bow cake and a birthday cake for two 12 year old girls who love horses. Cant wait to decorate these!I will try and post the pics of these cakes at some stage. I'm still learning the whole posting process!
happy caking everyone!
