breast cancer awareness month cake

the wilton rose...

these are my first attempts at the "wilton" rose. the teacher said they were perfect.


surprisingly, i went with yellow and my classmate went with pink. :)

not exactly duff goldman...

but everyone has to start somewhere. :)

the base of this cake is a family recipe for a chocolate cake. after piping on the dam between the layers i filled it with chocolate pudding and then topped that with heath toffee bits. then i put the top layer back on and iced it.


next i learned how to do the shell border and the sweet pea flowers & bow. finally i added the star border to the top and it looks like this.


this is a close up of the sweet peas on the top.


next week we will be learning roses!! yay!

i'm a wilton whore...

saturday was my first in the series of 4 classes in course 1.

i can't wait for next saturday!
