Christmas Roses






Hooray! I successfully finished Course 1 of my cake decorating classes. The final lesson was how to make the rose. Well, as you can see, I did it! Now, I am the first to say that I need lots of practice so that they look more like roses and less like carnations, but at least I'm close. The sample cake was done in pretty pink roses, but I figured since it was so close to Christmas, I would make mine red. Overall, I'm pretty proud of this cake. I sent it to work with my mom (since today I am trying to perfect my red velvet cake and do NOT need 2 cakes in this house!), and she said it received rave reviews-not only for presentation but for taste which to me is just as important as how it looks if not more so. Anyway, I'm excited and looking forward to Course 2 in January....
