Re: Cake Decorating

wow, your cakes are amazing, girls :k:
i’d love to take those classes someday..

sgc, did u use a car mold for that one? how many different ones do you have anyway?!

Re: Cake Decorating

Mrs. smooth_guy...WOW....!!...its so nice...:)

Re: Cake Decorating

mrs. smooth guy..i absolutely LOVE the basket wave design you made for the cake<3

Re: Cake Decorating

beautiful, mrs. smooth guy!! what a very cute cake! :)

namkeen, no, i carved it out of another 9 x 13 cake that i had baked... i asked the hubs to help me get the proportions right but basically you need a cake thats been sitting in the fridge overnight so its easier to cut and then a sharp knife and you can just mould the shape you want!

Re: Cake Decorating

WOW! That basket thing is neat. I am curious if you can give a free tutorial on how to make it in a grid or the basket effect...don't know what you call it. lol

Re: Cake Decorating

The top white part looks so nice and smooth, is that fondant?
or is it just icing?? By the way GREAT job Mrs smooth_guy

Here’s a site that shows you how to do the basket weave design…

Re: Cake Decorating

^^ Thanks!! That doesn't seem too difficult.

Re: Cake Decorating

I guess we'll see how easy or difficult it is once we try it.... :p

Re: Cake Decorating

Thank you everyone for appreciating my hard work :) it took me 4 hours to complete the cake from scratch. the good thing is it turned out quite well.

Neelum that top white part is icing, i usually use spatula to smooth it out.

Basket Weave is not hard , its just how u follow the steps, it has to be done in order, and remember to always start from the backside of ur cake.

once again thanks everyone!

Re: Cake Decorating

i finally managed a birthday cake after years and years of contemplating!!!

this is wat i baked for my son’s birthday :smiley:

butter cream frosting recipe taken off this thread (thanks to the contributors) and whipped cream sponge cake. i flavoured both with blueberry. :d

it was ok i guess for a first timer. but the butter cream wasnt smooth enough tastewise. i could feel the icing sugar in my mouth!!!
