I started collecting books after I enrolled in a cake decorating class late last year. Two of my favorite cake decorating books were written by Peggy Porschen. A little bit expensive but so worth it!
To date, I have created two cakes inspired by her designs.
Valentine's Heart |
My Valentine Cake (Feb 2012) Surprise for hubby |
Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting (Vertical lines using royal icing and flowers made with gumpaste) |
The next one is a combination of Peggy's White Spring Posies and very nice creations from The Designer Cake Company.
I made this green and pink cake for a good friend's birthday last month.
Moist Chocolate Cake covered with fondant topped with ribbon roses |
I used a fondant extruder for the green stems |
My cakes may not be as nice as theirs but they're not so bad for an amateur. Practice makes perfect and I intend to do some more hopefully when I have the chance.
