I used to think I was a decent cake decorator until I found this site! Talk about a confidence dropper! However, I have learned a TON from being on here and don't regret it for a second! The decorators on here do AMAZING work that I can only dream about doing someday. That's where my problems start. I read about how to do this technique or that recipe and then I try to do it - fully thinking mine will turn out like the decorator explained in the post and it is a DISASTER! So, I think I know how you feel. My motto is "Your cake may not look great, but it will taste fantastic!". So, I have sort of moved the focus of my cakes to the taste more than the decorating. Don't get me wrong, I keep trying the new techniques and try to do a good job decorating, I have just lowered my expectations on the outcome, if that makes sense. Otherwise, I would go insane. HTH.
yeah it can be kind of disappointing when you are not at a level that others are at. I just keep trying and focus more on what the people who are buying my cakes say. Usually great reviews..and that keeps me going. I dont plan to be on TV anytime soon...lol...so I just try and learn and do my best. There is always someone who can do it better no matter what it is....Have a great Day!
