So today I finished course 2 at Michael's and It was sooo much fun!!!

I can't wait til course 3, I already signed up...

My cake looks a lil different than the book but I think it looks better... My flowers are way brighter in person that in the pix too

I've attached some pix, tell me what you think...

oh, and on the way home my icing totally melted...i'll post in the cake disasters for that one...

Congrats!

Your cake is absolutely awesome!!!!!


I am glad you didn't follow the book, I love it when my students step out of the box and do it differently.

Very nice, well done!!

Your flowers are so beautiful! I love the vibrant colors you used! No wonder you're proud- It's lovely!

Its soo pretty. Im taking the gumpaste and fondant class now, but next thursday i start class 1. I cant wait!!

Your cake is beautiful, Love how you did your birds.

I always tell my students to use their own choice of colors, I feel there is to much pink and yellow on the cake in the book.

You did a wonderful job on your flowers also.

Your flowers are SO much better than mine were. I, the other student, AND the instructor had totally melted royal icing that would NOT cooperate that night. Oh well. Yours is fantastic.

great work, love the colors. If you loved course 2, you'll love course 3!

Welcome to an addicting hobby!

I really like it, I agree with everybody else, the colors are very vibrant and beautiful and your color flow work is well done too, if I may suggest something is to use the crumb coat on your cake to be the same color to be used in the basket wave, that way it will distract the eye a little from the separation of the lines (those will get thighter with practice) but in general I congratulate you for a work well done, and wait for course 3, you are going to love it!!!

I love it too! Beautiful colors and combination. Great job on making the flowers also.

Congratulations!

Thank you everyone for your compliments and suggestions!!

Wow, your flowers are perfect! Very nice! Congrats...I really loved my classes, so much I want to retake them! (I need a refresher, anyway!!!)

Looks great!! I finish course 1 tomorrow and am just "chomping at the bit" to get to 2, 3 and Fondant (yes... I know I could've taken them out of order but you know... I'm anal like that!). The flower look great- especially love the daffodils!

Is that peanut butter icing I see on that cake? That's what I used on my course 2 cake, too!

Love the colors. Looks great.
