Rose Cake

Yesterday evening was the last of my four week cake decorating classes that I’d been taking this past month, and we were asked to design and decorate our own cakes. For my final project, I created this rose cake. I can’t call it perfect, but as an amateur, I’d say this is one of the best decorating jobs I’ve personally ever done. While I love baking, the decorating aspect of cakes and cupcakes has always been a struggle with hit or miss results. Taking this cake decorating course helped me learn some great techniques, which will hopefully lead to better decorating results in my future baking endeavors!

I’m especially thankful for Dan, who encouraged me to take the classes, and who has been my photographer to document my creations along the way, as well as my taste tester. :)  I feel very lucky to have a husband who is so understanding and supportive of my various creative hobbies and interests!
