I am so excited to be taking Wilton cake decorating classes. I’ve been admiring the work of so many other food bloggers, that I just had to join in the fun. We were assigned the rainbow cake. I took liberty with the writing at the bottom because I was just so proud of myself :). I was also really excited to try the Fluffy Yellow Layer Cake recipe from Cook’s Illustrated that I saw on Katie’s blog. I’m really not too please with the way my icing (the blue) came out. I think my buttercream was too thick, so it wasn’t as smooth as I would have liked. Better luck next time.

The inside yumminess.

AHHHHHHHHHH!!! IT LOOKS GREAT! I’m so excited to see it! lol @ your writing! Haha. The blue icing looks great. You have great color and good uniformity. Next time…before you put on the decoration and after the frosting has dried and formed a “crust” you can take piece of parchment and run it over the cake to make it more smooth. That may help. I do it with my hand by patting it down. But that’s not the “correct” way. lol. Looks fabulous!! can’t wait to see the next one!
So cute! You are doing great in your class!!
aaawww rainbow is freaking adorable! Great star tipping! 🙂 and the w00tw00t is just fierce. LOL. Can’t wait to see your next class!
Thanks girls!
Katie- I thought that’s what I should do, but wasn’t sure. I was going to do it quickly in class, but I wound up being late bc I had a brain fart and forgot about daylight savings! Next time for sure!
CB – I almost wrote fierce…I was about to do it and M said “enough.”
So cute- that looks awesome. Keep up the great work and don’t lose your artistic creativity- you’re liable to see that cake popping up all over the internet just because it says Woot! 😉
TW – THanks so much. I can’t wait to do a google image search one day and see it come up when I write the tags, woot and cake!
I came across your blog looking for a pic of the cake we’ll be doing in class Friday, great job! I’m excited about the classes too, looks like I’m a week behind you : ) Have fun! Joyce
