These are my grades that I got this semester they are as follows A,A,B,A,B

We made a cheese cake today before our final it's really good.


This is the cake I decorated for my final. We had an hour and a half to decorate. we had to make three roses and do some writing or printing. I got a 98 on it. this is one of the better pictures of it but I don't think pictures do it justice.



Last week we made Boston cream pie and German Chocolate cake and a Chiffon layer cake.

In our class on Wednesday we decorated some cakes for Easter this Sunday. We didn't do any baking which is that part that I like but that's Ok with me too. We decorated pound cakes in the shape of lambs. We decorated cup cakes to look like Easter Baskets and put flowers on chocolate covered egg cakes.

The nose got smashed against the box on the way home.

This is the cake I decorated on Wednesday in class (it was baked the week earlier).





I also made a Peanut butter Tandy Cake, and Jewish Apple Cake.

It's been pretty busy here at our house and it seems like there isn't much to show for it. Linda was sick with the flu twice, fortunately the kids didn't get anything yet. I had mid terms in most of my classes and they seemed to go pretty well. We haven't had cake class in two week because of snow one day and a teacher day last week so not much baking too show off. We do have to make six icing roses for class and they turned out pretty well if you ask me.



We made Carrot cake in our last class. It was pretty good, Linda took it to work and they ate it all in a very short time. Linda said they were all raving about it being so good, which always makes you feel good.

Making a Scooby Doo birthday cake today, for a lady in Mifflinville. Hope it turns out. I'll have to ask her to send me a picture of it because my youngest daughter was carrying our camera around and now its broke.

BUMMER!!

It's been a few weeks since I have posted anything and we have learned a lot in class. We learned how to make character cakes and pipe stars on to make the outline and body of the character.



We also learned the proper method of putting together a double layer cake. We learned how to cut the cake flat, witch I knew but it was nice to know I was doing it correctly. I learned that putting a crumb coat on and letting it dry makes doing the final coat a lot easier. We learned how to pipe shells for a shell border and rosettes as well as Fleur De Lis.
