lol dragonwarlord1969.. I just grabbed that link and was about to make the same post! btw, the vanilla is coming along nicely!!
If you look in my photos, my daughters wedding cake is basket weaved... I just love to basket weave...it's time consuming, but it's worth it when you're done...
Just practice on a dummy cake til you get the hang of it...
I have a mat that has the dividing marks so you get them evenly spaced...
Good luck... and you'll be glad you learned how to do this.

Don't be a chicken. It is a fairly easy technique. Just takes a little time. It really looks great on the sides of cakes.
i really want to learn how to do this. but im chicken ha
Try it, basketweave is fun!! I wish I could do it on every cake but I know that it would get old after a while. My emergency easter cake used a basketweave.

Don't be scared of Basketweave! It can be a lot of fun. I'd try it first on a small cake. Make sure that you mark your sides and have fun! On large cakes you can start to go cross-eyed, but when you see it finished and see people's reactions its GREAT!! I cant wait to see how you amaze yourself when you try it!! My first and second cakes with Basket Weave are on here.
I thought it was going to be hard but once you get started it's pretty easy. Love the effect on the cake
