Today we got to learn how to make the first step of the Wilton Rose. We also learned how to make stars, various borders and dots, as well as how to write in icing. We also learned to make a transfer using piping gel. That was very easy. The instructor said I have delicate hands, she thought I did very well with the writing but when I had to really squeeze the frosting out I wasn’t as consistent.

Since it is St. Patrick’s Day I did a Shamrock transfer. Take a look at the cake I decorated…

The cake was made using a Duncan Hines Yellow cake mix. I then filled it with my own Chocolate Filling recipe. And then frosted it with the Wilton Buttercream frosting recipe, which is not very good but it doesn’t go bad which is perfect for class. Usually I would use this Buttercream recipe instead.
