Main Blurb

Hi,

My name is Jane and I am using this blog as a way of keeping a record of my cake decorating projects.


I have always enjoyed cooking, particularly baking and have started to take cake decorating more seriously over the last few years. It all started when a friend asked me to make the cake for her wedding in May 2010. In the 9 months or so leading up to the wedding I started buying cake decorating books and
looking online, practicing my piping and sugar paste skills and soon I was hooked, taking any opportunity to try out a new technique or recipe.


From September 2010 to June 2011 I completed a cake decorating course at Thames Valley University and make cakes for friends and family at any given opportunity.


Thanks and I hope you enjoy the blog.

Project Number 1

As part of my course at college we have to produce three project cakes - this is my first one.  It is a square royal iced cake with a run out design of our choice.  It has bulbs piped along the bottom edge and shells along the top.  It was the first time I had done flat royal icing, usually opting for snow effect and I was very proud of the results.  Sadly this was done on a polystyrene dummy and not a real fruit cake!
