Yes. I do love fondant, but not everyone likes fondant. Some people just love or prefer buttercream, but I'm not a buttercream expert. I started decorating cakes backwards. I tried running before I could walk. I started carving cakes before I could even bake one. Recently, I decided to take some classes and freshen up my piping and buttercream techniques...time to put on some training wheels!!!
I took some local classes, and it was worth dragging myself out of bed every early Saturday morning :) My fear of piping borders were subsided and my appreciation for the fluffy and sweet icing was renewed. No more filling in spaces with a star tip for me! You want a bouquet of roses? I got roses!... You get what I mean, right? Most of all, I can now ice a cake like it's super smooth plaster on a wall. Except, it's edible and really good. Yay for buttercream!
Buttercream... What?! That is so unlike me!
