Cake story

Its Monday and I am attempting to get my normal blog post up for this day. Last week I was just so worn out I could not find the energy to put finger to computer lol.
So this week I thought I would tell you about something that makes me happy.
I few years ago I was given a cupcake making course as a gift, I knew how to bake a cake but it was not a hobby that I really enjoyed.
However after the course I got more and more interested and after two college courses and a few short ones I am hooked.
I still don't enjoy the baking side as much but i love the decorating side. I am very creative so its great to make something from sugar that people love.
I have been very lucky to go on some great courses and hope to do more of those in time. My only regret is I did not start it when I was younger. Hope you are having a great Easter and I will finish with a couple of my cakes,

    Such amazing cakes. I'm the other way around - like the baking, but not the decorating.

    I can tell that you've had lessons :) I do cake decorating too but I'm self taught, I can recognise some of the skills you have that I've not yet learnt, I love all your cakes but the Anniversary one is the most impressive to me.
