Hi, I started cake decorating about two years ago and although I loved art and all things beautiful, my actual art skills were very limited, or so I thought. Prior to starting in this cake world, I could not even draw a stick figure and I still can’t, but through lots of practice and pretty much learning everything through online tutorials , you tube, and other cake artists’ help, I can safely say I have developed so many skills I never thought I had – piping, fondant/gumpaste sculpting, painting, etc… I learn something new with every cake I make as I’m sure all artists do – it is a growth process and your talents build as you practice and challenge yourself. Best of luck to you!
