re: What skills would you like to improve?

I would like to have a go at modelling chocolate, royal icing and piping skills as I have ever really done any of these things. I might also have a dabble at flowers – I think a Gerbera would be high on my list. Where time permits I like to go and join a class for a new skill as it is fun to get out and about and meet other cakey people as well as see the skill demonstrated before you. Other than that, I usually try and work it out for myself and consult if I get stuck. My figure modelling is self taught, so I now find it fascinating to see how other people achieve their results. Good luck with it all Linda, hope to see some lovely creations showing off your newly acquired skills! Xx
