I just finished the Wilton I course on Tuesday and have been sending "free" cakes to work with DH for the past month (class cakes and practice at home cakes). I sent the "Rose Cake" from class on Wednesday morning and when everyone saw it they called me and asked me to do 2 half sheet cakes for a going away party that they were having today. They called and cancelled the other cake order when I said yes.
So cool to be able to do what I love and get paid for it, too. Here's the cake pics. One is of the US Postal Service Eagle Logo and the other is of the "Conversation Hearts" postage stamp that is very popular around Valentines Day.

Great job!!!!

very nice...must have been a challenge doing the logo!

Great job on both cakes! Congrats to you!

Those are so cute! I really like the writing on first cake, too.

Nice work... I see lots of cake sales in your future!

It about blew my mind tho' when I read the Rowlett P.O. inscription... I'm in Garland. Small world.

Great job! Watch out, though! If they're like my dh's office, by the time you finish all three Wilton courses, he'll be coming home with questions from his coworkers like, where are the cakes? Don't you have a class this week? Are you going to be practising some more?

Enjoy it. You'll get a great reputation(looks like you've already done that), and make your hubby the most popular guy at work to boot

happy baking!
