Cake Decorating
Cake decorating is fun and it's so satisfying to see the finished
product. This practical course has saved our family so much
money. I used to spend $20-30 on a birthday cake but now I can
make one for $8-10. The kids love the specialized cakes and
everyone is amazed that I made it. If you are good at it, it could
become your part-time job.

  • If you are pressed for time use boxed cake mix and
    canned vanilla icing which you can tint.
  • more complicated cakes will need stiffer icing like
    buttercream.
  • Icing color gel is better than liquid color.
  • Buy cake pans that you know you can use several
    times.
  • If possible, rent specialty pans from bulk food stores
    and specialty stores.
  • Be creative...use little toys as props.
  • Give yourself enough time. It takes me an hour or so
    to decorate.
