Can I Show You My First Ever Cake?
Decorating By BellaBabyCakes Updated 2 Jun 2008 , 2:31pm by doitallmom
My first ever decorated cake! Yea, I've thrown sprinkles on and scrawled messages on a cake in a 9 x 13 pan, but never ventured in this sort of territory!
This is a WASC cake with raspberry and lemon filling, with lemon buttercream.
Here's the cake top:
The image was done with FBCT and the words had to be hand piped, horror of horrors! The original wording done in the transfer broke upon placement. All in all, I'm satisfied.
Here's the side:
I wanted to do some cornelli lace or something on the sides but ran out of time...since it's for my boy, who cares if there's no extra frills, heh.
So yea, I'm pretty ok with it since it's my FIRST EVER! Now, hopefully it tastes good
DivaLori that is FANTASTIC!!! I NEVER would've guessed that was your first! You are on track for quite an amazing skill here!! Welcome to CC and I can't wait to see where you go from here!!
looks great to me! I bet it tastes great too! Congrats on a very professional looking 1st cake!!
Oh my gosh , I was so scared to post it here among all you rockin cake artists! I don't have a class around me so I've been venturing on my own..but thank you so much!
I am definitely making more in my future (heck, I've spent enough money on stuff so I'd better), lol! If it weren't for the great tips here, it wouldn't look nearly as "ok" as it does
Well done to you DivaLori! I admire the fact that you overcame all the difficulties very well and the end result looks great! I wish you every continued success for the future!
Wow! - It look Fab! Wish my first ever cake turned out like this one . I'm exactly like you are ... venturing on my own .
I'm exactly like you are ... venturing on my own .
Isn't it frustrating? I do have a Wilton class about 1.5 hrs away...but with the cost of gas and my crazy work schedule, it just doesn't seem to be an option right now. I definitely plan on Sugarshack's dvds!
Really great first effort! I love the picture you selected to do for the top. Your boy had to enjoyed it, that's pretty special! Thanks for sharing with the gang!!
DivaLori, you did an awesome job. I don't know if I would have had the nerve to do a FBCT on a First cake. I'm really impressed. You are a natural.
