Hi fellow cakey people! My name is Lori and Iāve been part of this site for about 4 years but you are just now meeting me because Iām anti-computer š¤£ and I just recently started posting some of my cakesā¦but I have been admiring all of yours for quite some time! I was a full-time ICU nurse who cut back to part time to do more cakes because wellā¦I love this more! haha I was wondering if anyone knows of classes (Iām hoping here in the northwest~ I live in WA state~ USA) that teach more architecture for cakes and also more advanced flower arranging. I design my own cakes and have some fun ideas but sometimes Iām afraid to carry out the design because Iām not sure architecturally how to do it without messing up the integrity of my cakes. Iāve done quite a few 5 and 6 tier wedding cakes so stacking isnāt what Iām afraid of- itās doing those crazy things that make your cakes really stand out!!š Do you all just do trial runs when you do those kinds of architecturally-challenging cakes or are there any classes that might help to gain some skills? (Because Iām sure every cake is different also)- I would super appreciate any advice you are willing to give or direction on classes that might help with this! Thanks so much and nice to meet you all!
