there it is better hehe........is that not good for a ten year old????? Only her second lesson too! :
oh she will be so tickled to read all these wonderful comments, thank you all so much.
Madge the rose is absolutely beautiful. I think she is going to be one heck of a cake decorator
She says she is going to be a cake decorator when she grows up, and she really is good already. Her first cake she bakes came out perfect, with no leveling or trimming needed, it was amazing. Can you tell her Nanna is proud lol?
It's so awesome when kids do great things!! You must be a good teacher too. My grandma bought me an aluminum gingerbread man pan when I was about 12 and that started it all for me. Been decorating ever since. Funny thing is the only thing my grandmother knew how to make was reservations

Thats such a cute story.....I hope she continues to learn...she is very good. and I am so happy to work with her. Thanks
Watch out Nanna! I see the "Cake" gleam in those big pretty eyes of your grand daughter. Looks like the cake bug has bitten her.........hehehe! If her beautiful roses are an indication of her skill, looks like you are going to have an apprentice on your hands. Must be in the genes! Happy baking to you both.
I know she will be better than me in a very short time. She is wonderful....makes me so happy. I am so lucky!
Thanks so much! She will be so thrilled, and be given real encouragement to continue when she reads these wonderful comments. Thanks for taking the time.

if she ever shows an interest in working with fondant...i highly recommend encouraging her to take any type of sculpting class. After my baby sister started watching me work with fondant, she started taking classes at the local youth community center and for her art class in middle school and high school...it helps ALOT! I am proud today to say she has quickly begun to surpass me in her skills
good luck to your little apprentice, she's showing true skills already!
Lots of talent there. She really did an awesome job on her roses. She must be a quick learner. It took me quite a while to come up with something that even resembled a rose.
She has played a little with fondant....but I didn't want her to get frustrated, so I been holding off on it, but she called today and said she wanted to come after school and work with fondant haha, so we will see....thats a great idea....wish I could get a class with clay too

I know, I am self taught and it took me a long time to get it right....she amazes me.
actually you may be able to take one with her, check community centers and colleges in your area...i took one not to long ago and it was very affordable, i think like 40 bucks. sometimes the high schools even have after school classes for adults...i think its called adult education classes most of them you can do with her as something for you to do together. good luck to you.
Could she please give me lessons? Pretty please? I'll make any flower but a rose. Roses and I just don't get along!

Thats the way I felt about them a year ago lol
What a wonderful way to spend time with your g'daughter! These are days you'll both remember...my great-aunt Merle was the best baker I've ever known. She was so inspiring to me. She's been gone for many years, but I think about her EVERY time I turn my oven on! What she taught me and passed on to me is priceless. You're doing the same for your precious g'daughter!
wow Sassy that was beautiful, thank you. Latebloomer sure, you have a long way to go though lol....thanks to everyone for such nice posts. She is a little sweetheart and I know just how blessed I am to have her, and I love that I get this time with her.
