I'm not new, I've been lurking here for a long time! I love you all and thank you so much! I think I have read every single forum post here.
I have always loved baking for my family and because of all of you and allot of hard work and experimenting on my part, people are calling me up and offering me money to bake cakes for them.
I'm now even making fondant and doing fondant work. Its so crazy! I owe you all so much! The pride I feel after doing a cake is the best thing you could have ever given me.
I don't have a question, I'm just bursting with joy, because of you and I wanted you to know.
wow go ahead make my day -- thank you -- I love your work -- how could anyone get such a nice dress out of cupcakes -- well done -- and I especially love the pink doughnut --
welcome welcome
so you know about the perils of not being able to reply at first -- idk exactly when you joined but usually:
there is some kind of new member delay on being able to "reply" to posts so please start a new thread to continue any discussion -- at some point all of a sudden you will be enabled to "reply" but not for a while -- maybe like 30 days — I think it might have to do with time and activity levels -- please respond in a new thread if you want/need to —
best to you
Your cakes are beautiful and especially the cupcakes, very clever. I haven't been on here long but I feel like I've made some friends and the wealth of information these ladies & gents have to share with everyone is wonderful. Just ask and they will help. Even though I've been decorating for a long time there's so much more for me to learn and have learned here. This is the perfect place to come to.
Hello schurmimi! Your work is beautiful and I am happy you have decided to join us on the Forum! These three ladies right here, -K8memphis, kakeladi, and BettyA are some of the most knowledgable people you will ever meet in the sweet world of cakes! I don't think there is anything they do not know and they have taught me more than I could ever explain! Everyone has something to offer, so don't be afraid to jump in and share your experiences and opinions!
omg — I wish I was as smart as sandra thinks I am — hahaha — i just love to talk about cakes — now sandra is well versed in a lot of the latest innovations and has created a ton of masterpieces
I don’t have much knowledge to share but I’m a great taste-tester if you or anyone else wants to send me their masterpieces. :)
Kate and Betty, that was not hyperbole, but facts! I am old too, Betty, but I don't have anywhere near your's, Kate's and Lynne's experience. I learn new things almost daily!
in my 47 years of selling my baked goods -- I do appreciate your kind words, miss sandra -- I started out selling "health food" hand kneaded whole wheat bread 
What a wonderful place to start, Kate! I enjoy making (and eating) breads even more than cakes.
Sandra you are way off base to say I know everything!!:( I have mentioned many times things I don’t know or understand:) I’m lucky to remember what I read elsewhere and pass that information on mainly because I can no longer get my hands “sugared” the only way I can is to try to help others be making things easier for them
Well, you know a heck of a lot more than me! Good grief, Lynne, you created the most beloved recipe in this country, *Original* WASC Cake!
