Hi! I am an amateur cake decorator. Everything I've learned has been trial and error and watching youtube tutorials. With each cake I make, I set a new goal… 'teach myself to make straight edges.' Then I watch anything I can find on straight edges. So I learn from all of you. Some times I struggle and want to chuck it all in the trash (which I have) and other cakes come together like a breeze. I've mainly made cakes for family. But would love to gain confidence enough to do it for other people. With each cake I buy one new tool. I have four beautiful little girls from the ages of 5 yrs old to 3 months old. So my cake baking/decorating happens between the short hours of nap time and after bedtime. :) Someday I'd love to take some classes. But till then, I will keep learning from you all.
