This is my first big event cake. It was simple. All BC even the filling. The flowers are silk and the # 40 was made out of Royal icing. It took me two days to bake and decorate. I'm on my way

JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!! Hard to believe it's your first!

WOW.....it really is great. how did you make the quilt pattern?

Very pretty. Congrats

Wow!!!! Thank's guys. To answer your question michellesArt. I am self taught. I signed up for wilton's classes but after sitting in on the first class I said to myself I can do this on my own. I'm impatient, the class was going to slow for me. After that the rest is all by trail and error. I love to do this and I realized this was my gift. I learn from looking. And it's worked out to my advantage. Believe it or not..this was the second cake.
The first one I did collasped on me. I underestimated the weight of the square cake. I used just cake plates and dowels between the layers and it caved in on me. I was devastated. But thank God I had enough time to do another one. This time though I used seperater plates. That trail and error thing. But anyhoo thank's again for all your comments.

matwogirls- I just picked up the impression mat from my cake decorating store. I did'nt see a size on it.

kimmypooh- It was a diamond impression mat

kjt- Thank you
