Iced the cake with buttercream, smoothed with a paper towel with a pattern to resemble snowflakes, then built up the icing for the actual snow man. outlined him with black buttercream through a small tip, then added a nose with tip #8. Scarf with tips #5 and #47. Pressed sugar crystal/sprinkles into the snowman, then dusted with disco dust. Finished with shell borders piped with tip #8 to look like snowbals.
We sprinkled disco dust over all of them to finish them all off. They were quite pretty.
I striped the bag for some of them too to create the two-toned effect. The yellow was aligned iwth the narrow end of the tip.
same as the previous description.
Another blurry photo, this was taken with my camera phone. This is an anniversary cake I made on Saturday. I had a hard time making the cake stay together before i iced it. (Betty crocker box mix was really moist and fell appart easily.) The strawberries were piped with a round hole cut in a parchment bag then smoothed with a knife. Some of the side strawberries were piped with a V-cut. The leaves were piped with a V-cut, and the message was piped with a small star tip. The border was also piped with a Vcut
My first cake made when I finished the first cake-decorating class at Sweet Celebrations (similar to the Wilton classes). I piped some burnt-orange buttercream roses with really stiff buttercream and it gave it a really cool looking "dry leaf" appearance. The other roses were a red wine color. I found piping roses on a skewer is a lot easier than the nail. However, piping a large rose kind of requires a nail (or a really fat skewer).
