I had no clue you hadn't had classes. I REALLY like your cakes. In fact, I have a few in my favorites (not knowing they were from the same decorator). I like your style. I can't wait to see your future cakes!

It is an inspiring place! Gosh I remember when I first started playing with decorating, all I had was the 1977 Wilton Yearbook for inspiration, my how things have changed! I remember when being creative was making bunnies out of marshmallows stuck together with toothpicks and using paper for the ears, haha! Heehee, I still do that sometimes, just so I can eat them.
All of you newbies pick up techniques in a few month's time from your first cake, things many of us took years to learn. You folks are just amazing!

OKAY, I just finished looking at your photos. Is this a Wilton Course I class that you're taking? Because I think you may be wasting your money! It looks to me like you've got everything that you learn in course I nailed already! I'm sure you'll have fun no matter what though! icon_smile.gif
