Course 1, Class 3

In this class we began by learning the center petal of the Wilton rose. I managed to get it in the end, but in the 2 weeks I have before our final class (the instructor is out of town next week) I should probably practice so I can get it right every time. Then we moved onto shell borders, then large dots and hearts. After that we learned the drop flower and the swirl flower. Finally, we learned the clown. I am a little disappointed that there was an entire cake dedicated to this clown because I think there are a lot of other things they could have taught us. Oh well.

I made a bright colored cake this week. I tried to get the green a lime green, and then my decorations are royal blue. Everyone else did white bases with pale colors. My final cake will be a lot less obnoxious. But this was clowns after all. What is more obnoxious than a clown?

I added a shell border to the top and bottom, and also added the flowers that we learned in class. Oh yeah, and my clowns have really long arms.

  1. The cake looks very pretty, yet delicious at the same time. The clowns' arms are very...Go-Go Gadget Arms.

    I will eat the clowns so they do not torment me in my dreams.
