Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself since I just found this site. My name is Andrea. I went to my first class last night. I can already tell this is going to be addictive! I look forward to getting to know all of you and sharing ideas!

Hi Andrea -

I'm Sonja - I will be taking my first class tomorrow night. What happens on the first night? It's for two hours and the gals at the store have no idea nor could they tell me if I needed to bring anything - Commond Sense would be a note pad...

What did you think?

I'm new to this site too, but love all the information that our fellow cake decoraters share... I've been on the sight every night for a week... I wonder if the is a rehab for Cakecentral.com junkies?

Take care & good luck!

Last night all we had to bring was a notepad and pen. During class we talked about the supplies that we would need, how to make the icing, baking the cake, basics of icing and took a look at upcoming classes to see what was in store for us. It should be a fun class!

Have fun at your class! I agree with you about cake central junkies, lol! I can already tell I'm going to spend a lot of time here.

Welcome to CC, Andrea! You are as good as sunk when it comes to addiction. Cake Central is THE most addicting thing I have ever been exposed to! icon_lol.gif
There is so much to learn and you have definitely found the right place to learn it in conjunction with your classes.
I too am taking classes and am currently in Course III and Fondant and Gumpaste right now. Courses I and II went by with lightening speed.

Have fun and jump right in to a great group of friendly conversationalist with decorating talents untold!!

Welcome to C.C. ladysonja and Hippiemama. Great to have you both on board. You're gonna love it here. Warning though, it's tough to sign off once you get on here. icon_biggrin.gif There's so many wonderful people here who are so willing to help out. Really, the nicest bunch of people you'd ever expect to meet. I honestly don't know what in the world I did before I discovered this place. Anyway, so nice to meet you both and I look forward to getting to know you.

Thanks Andrea for the heads up for class.

I have tons of questions for the instructor already... I've made two cakes with fondant, but need to practice on my decorating skills with icing... to include covering a cake smooth with icing... I hope that class I & II fly by, I want to get to the Fondant & Gumpaste class... I'll check back with you if I get stumped... feel free to do the same...

Welcome Andrea!

This site is so fun and informative! The people here are wonderful and SO helpful! The only problem I have found is that I can't pull myself away long enough to bake my cakes like I should be! icon_lol.gif

Happy Baking!

I just finished my first class this evening... The first thing I did after letting the dogs out, talking to the bird and fish was sign on and read what's been going on today at CC... I'm so in trouble!
