So im gonna ask for some cake stuff for mothers day i think LOL
I need to try this out im obsessed with the idea !!
So can u guys list some must haves for beginners?? Really wish there was a beginners board 
Thanks alot ladies !!!!
If you don't have any equipment, you can start with some basics:
there is a starter set of decorator tips in a box that has a good variety
some parchment cones - or disposable icing bags
OR 2-3 regular icing bags.
a Wilton yearbook for pictures, instructions and ideas
a set of icing colors, Americolor gels are better than Wilton, but Wilton will work if that is all you can get.
good luck.
do you have no supplies at all?
i would get the wilton 1 cake kit even if you don't take the course. it comes with a spatula, a few tips, bags, couplers, practice board and flower nail. use the 40% off coupon, and its a really good deal. i would also get some icing colors, at least the basic ones and then you can mix your own. wilton's $12 turntable is a good thing to start with too. i've loved having a turntable for my cakes! oh, and of course some pans if you don't have those either. happy mothers day to you!
oo thanks ladies ! where do i get the 40% coupon? from michaels itself or somewhere else ?
a turntable definately makes decorating easier. If youre starting from nothing, Id say the 1st essentaials would be a couple tips- star, rose, writer, and leaf to start, I rarely use any other ones. some good bags, i find most of the ones they sell are annoying so i usually prefer to use the clear plastic disposable or parchment triangles, then you dont even need to use couplers. a large offset spatual for frosting the cake. a rose nail and a lifter to pick it up with, a good instructive book that will show you step by step how to do things, some wax paper to practice on, and something safe to keep it all in, so youre tips dont get bent up
