The candy canes were quite easy, very light rolling between both palms and extra twisting seemed to work

I love those Santa cakes!!!

Put the candy canes onto cakes today -

Loving the xmas cupcakes x I'm going to a cupcake class next thursday & then one on the 18th Dec which is a xmas themed one I cant wait x

Well I did my digger cupcakes & I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out x The chocolate ones were yummy x

 

[Piperette]

Gorgeous cupcakes, Reedy. You don't need to go to any cupcake classes, they are great.

 

[Emmy1987]

Reedy they are so cute!

 

[Laura2919]

They are cute Reedy.. I learnt everything I know from looking on here and the internet. I could never ever justify spending £90 to learn how to decorate a cupcake. Plus thats a really good attempt but if you want to learn loads more definitely look at youtube!

 

[Reedy]

Thanks guys x I wouldn't pay £90 either But the classes are £15 each for 2 hours which I think is fab x YouTube is really good but I need someone to show me where I'm going wrong & if I'm doing it right too, plus I want to learn new tips x

 

[Laura2919]

Wow £15. I'd say go for it. They are £90-£125 here!

 

[Piperette]

Wow, £15 each is a good price. Why are they so cheap?

 

[Laura2919]

I think £15 ones are because you bring your own equiptment. I have only seen one place who does them cheaper but not £15 they were still £55 but had to bring all your own bits.

 

[Emmy1987]

£15 is so good! Around here they're all like £80+

YouTube is my best friend, although I'd love to have a class on covering big cakes with fondant as I just can't seem to get it right!

Ah it's my birthday in 3 weeks and OH is wanting to buy me some baking supplies but now I have all the options I don't know what to ask for

 

[Reedy]

They supply everything but the cakes x its probably that cheap bcos they are crap lol hoe not though, will let you all know how it went next Friday x
They do big cake classes too not sure if they are £15 aswell might be a bit more x

Whoop! I have my first order BUT its for the 17th December and I'm due on the 22nd December! Let's hope I can still reach the work top lol.
Do I ask for the money before or after?

 

[Glitterfairy]
