In honor of all the beautiful people (men & women) touched by Breast Cancer....

Decorating like Crazy....

Hey I know it has been a while since I blogged, so I thought I would catch you up on what I have been doing.... Well today is my mom's birthday as well as my own. (yeah!)

I made the skeleton face out of rice cripsie treats and then covered it with candy coating.

Woof Woof  - Mom's Dalmation Cake

I made Mom a chocolate cake with raspberry filing, chocolate butter cream under white fondant.

I made the puppy out of fondant and painting the spots with black food coloring.




Then I made a cake for mom and I to share for our Saturday night celebration. I made the little Nirto and Elvis out of fondant for the top of the cake.  And marbled the white fondant with blue and purple. once it was on the cake I added purple and pink royal icing flowers.

Roses

Today I prepared for my second cake decorating class by making icing... yummy yummy sugary icing... :-)

During class, we learned how to fill the icing bag and use couplers with our icing tips. Once we pretty much mastered stars and dots, they taught us how to make roses... I thought it would be super hard and complicated, but see for yourself....

My First Rose.

Once I started getting into it, I ran out of little wax paper squares and started running out of icing...

All the Pretty Roses...

I am going to keep practicing my roses, stars and dots. When I actually put them on a cake, I will take lots of pictures.
