Cake Craft
About two years ago I took a cake decorating class at a local cooking wares store (that is sadly closed). I was a bit shakey at first, but after a few birthday cakes for friends, I'm getting better. This weekend I made two cakes that worked out really well. the first was for a housewarming/birthday/victoria day party. I decided to focus on the housewarming element of the party:

the cake:
Next day was the Bluenose marathon and the husband and a few friends ran in the relay race. They did really awesome and were 13th out of 37!

the best part about making two cakes in one weekend? cake for breakfast!
only one piece that I took home from yesterday's party and the bits from making the top flat. I think that cake for breakfast is possibly one of my most favourite things ever.
The husband is totally supportive of my cake decorating, but I think he'd prefer that our kitchen didn't end up looking like this:
(this weekend wasn't nearly as bad as some of the messes I've made in the past).

Fantastic cakes!! I have attempted making decorative cakes in the past - but they are super hard to do - the writing on your second cake is SO perfect - how did you keep your hand so steady?
