Thursday was week three of my Wilton class. This week we worked on the second part of the rose, shell border, and making cartoon faces. I really enjoyed making the teddy bear face. We also worked on some of other flowers like the star flower and the spiral flower. I really enjoyed making the spiral flowers. This week I had the right consistency of my medium icing that is used to decorate with.
This week we had the option of bringing a cake or cupcakes. I chose to make cupcakes. Besides being cute, they are just easier to make. We had to use the clown heads for this cake. My mom had saved some of my from my clown cake when I was young and I recycled those, but I had to purchase some more. You know what they look exactly the same. I guess why mess up a good thing. My instructor taught us how to make the pretty swirl that you see on the cakes at the grocery store. I love knowing this skill. I think it makes your cupcakes look so pretty. We then learned how to make the body of the clown. They take alot of icing, but are so darn cute. I think that I enjoyed making so much that I just kept making them in class. This week I was not tired when I came home from class that I finish making all of my clown cupcakes on Thursday night. The clown cupcakes are just so cute...it is a shame that they have to be eaten.
Next week is our final week where we get to put all of our learned skills to to the test. Wish me luck with my final cake.
