Wilton Course 2

Here are some pictures from Wilton Course 2. We did a lot of different royal icing flowers ahead of time and then assembled the cake with a basket weave on the side and decorated it with the flowers. I think royal icing flowers are much easier than buttercream flowers and they usually turn out better.

I made some cupcakes for my work Luau with the extra flowers I had. Pineapple cake mix with vanilla buttercream and coconut. Pina colada? The pineapple wasn't as prominent as I was hoping, but they still looked beautiful.

I have really loved taking cake decorating classes. It is one of the most fun things I have ever done! I will probably do the fondant course after the summer is over. Its a busy summer.

There is a game we used to play in college, called, "What's your favorite song right now?" (Hopefully some of the readers remember this game because it was pretty awesome.) James and I play it occasionally. Some of my most recent favorite songs, with (1) being most recent and (3) being less recent, are:

(1) Airplanes-B.O.B. featuring Hayley Williams of Paramore

(2) Hey, Soul Sister-Train

(3) Bulletproof-La Roux
