Hey all. I have a BTB inquiring about a cake with cornelli lace on it. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions to do this. I have any done it on the practice board in wilton course. I was also wondering how to do the sides? Thanks for the help Megan
Ok I am not very good at cornelli lace see my wedding cake, I also did one more cake but have no picture. My instructor said the way you do the sides it with one of those tilting cake turntables but you must be careful or the cake can fall to make sure it is locked before you tilt. Thin icing also helps she says and the smaller the tip the better I used tip 2 on the bottome tier of my wedding cake from class sorry the picture is not very good so you can't really see. Hope this helps if not someone will here in a minute
I bought a tilting turntable for the purpose of decorating sides of cakes - I was never able to get the hang of it and much prefer decorating sides with my flat turntable. For cornelli lace on sides of cakes it works best for me with thin icing and hold the tip VERY close to the side of the cake; this way I am able to be more precise and the icing doesn't fall.

Your practice board should have come with a stand so you can put it upright and practice doing the lace like you would on the sides of the cake. And like snowshoe1 said, hold the tip close so the icing doesn't fall off. (I'm not an expert but I've dropped enough frosting off the sides of my cake to have learned this one! 
)
I elevate the cake so that I am eye-level with the side of the cake when adding cornelli to the sides. I use a #1 tip and plan on it taking a while! You need to take LOTS of breaks to shake out the cramps in your hand. It takes patience and time, but I love the end results.
