Decorating By thatslifeca Updated 15 Jul 2010 , 3:27pm by thatslifeca
I love this thread. I too have recently taken on the airbrush....and well let's just say it is a learning experience. I can cover a cake with one color fairly well, and highlight some ares decent, but am oh so scared to try a straight line or actually paint a picture!! My kids know when the airbrush comes out it is time to hide in their bedrooms!!!
HI Thatslifeca, first off Vodka is a MUST, a couple of shots and anything you paint looks GOOOOOD !!!!!!!!!
I was a a small county fair one day during the middle of the the week and there were not many people around so I approched the young man who does airbrush work on t-shitrs and explained that wife makes cakes and that I had bought her an airbrush for decorating and we were having a hard time with it.
He laughed and said it's easy and in about 15 minuets he had me painting straight lines,shading and blending.AND never mentioned me paying for the lesson ! Trust me, next day he had a great ,airbrushed cake .
Thatslife - where in Canada are you? I am near Toronto, I took an airbrush class at Flour Confections in Pickering ON. Made a huge difference for me! Great class with lots of great tips! I highly recommend it if you are close by, before you send another airbrush to cake heaven.

Hi Kaat, I'm actually about 1hr west from you. Yes I know about the classes, I thought "who needs a class, it's just an airbrush 
. I'm wondering if Karla Johnson who is close by might teach airbrushing, who knows. I'll have to look into it I guess.
Hey Kaat, just a quick question? Have you ever taken any of the classes at Golda's Kitchen? and are they worth taking?
I haven't. I've taken some demo classes at Creative Cutters and regular classes at FC, but that's about it. I have been to Golda's when the ICES day of sharing was there. It's a nice place. Have you been on the Cakes Canada forums? There is probably someone there who has been to Golda's classes.
