I started my Wilton class a few weeks ago and I should be making the clown cake this tuesday...

So.....I kind of like the cute lil clowns, but I dont want to copy it exactly....I love the drop flowers as well.

Should I incorporate the two into one cake?? Should I just do one idea?? Should I forget about the clowns and do something different???

I want to be outside the box but I don't have any ideas at all..

Please help!!
TIA!!!

Anybody out there????

I'm taking the same class you are and we are doing clowns next week also. We have to take a iced cake to class and do the clowns in class...I don't think we have much wiggle room on this one.

Make a fruit cake using the piping techniques taught in the class. Or make faces of your fellow students using the piping techniques already taught. The real goal is to use some technique you have either already learned in class or will be learning that session. If your instructor gets fussy about it, then maybe she isn't as creative as you are. =) Good Luck.

I saw a youtube video of a girl who did monkeys instead of clowns. Turned out really awesome....

I'm doing the rainbow cake on Monday for my class. I decided to spice it up by using neon colors... I wanna be original, too!
