Today a friend of mine and I were able to go and take a free cake decorating class, compliments of the incredibly talented Sharon Skates at Custom Cakes by Sharon. We had a blast and learned all sorts of things. Did you know you're supposed to have 2 layers of icing? The first one you put on is called the crumb fill layer. It holds on the crumbs and fills in gaps. After you let that layer dry a little, you add another layer. This one is the one that's supposed to look pretty. After it dries a little you take a Viva paper towel and smooth a little. That's good to know. She also taught us to make buttercream roses, how to trim the cake with buttercream, how to make fondant roses, and how to make fondant babies. The babies turned out soooooo cute! I love mine! Enjoy the pics!
