If you have lots of ideas but are waiting on the customers, start working on dummy cakes! Styrofoam is pretty inexpensive. Fondant isn’t cheap, but think of it as your marketing budget! That way you’ll be able to showcase your great ideas, and have some display cakes around for when you start meeting with customers outside of your family & friends.
