My final cake for Wilton course 2. The course was about gum paste, royal icing, flowers, and basket weaving. I learned so much! The cake was a complete mess; when I cut it in half it crumbled to pieces. I had it sitting on the counter and our 4 year old took a few swipes at it when nobody was looking – his face was full of chocolate. The basket weave helped cover up all the problems.
Your cake looks awesome! I have to take some cake classes, too – they sure do look like fun! But then again… I would eat the cake!!! LOL
