No, seriously, I do. I LOVE cake, you really have no idea how much....

Welcome to my new blog. I should let you know that my passion for cake began in the winter of 2006 after the birth of my second son. I found a cake that I love and then ate it every day....EVERY day...I kid you not! From there I began looking at cakes in whole new way and found that I really appreciate a good cake. I have recently started a cake decorating course and hope one day to be the maker of my own delicious cakes; to make them not only for myself but for others to enjoy too (yes! I have finally decided to share!!). Follow me in my journey from cake connoisseur to cake decorator!! Enjoy...I know I will!!

First Decorated Cake. Status:FAIL!!






Ummm...yeah....so apparently I suck at this whole 'cake decorating' thing. It seems that it is much harder to decorate a cake than it is to eat it!

I will post a picture of the cake here only because my purpose is to document my "journey into cake decorating" and everyone must start some where right??

Now, as unappealing as the cakes looks, I have to say it was delicious. Really...it was!!

I LOVE this, Phoebe! :) I think your first cake was pretty good, and makes me a little embarrassed to be sharing my lame-o decorating attempts on FB! :) Looking forward to seeing you improve. Are you going to tackle fondant? I haven't tried yet.

Martha, you are way too kind!! :-)
I am going to totally try fondant...maybe that is my calling.....I have to be good at something cake related...not just eating!! I think maybe the next session of classes I take in August cover fondant...I'm too afraid to try it on my own without taking a class...I will be sure to share the photo evidence when I try it out....maybe you can try it first and let me know what I'm in for!!

Martha, I just went back to FB and looked at your cake photos again and I am totally awed by how great of a job you did!! I love your cakes and the fact that you did that without a class of any sort is completely awesome...so not lame-o!!
