Decorating


I've been so productive already this week! I've done a ton of laundry (and actually folded it), gone running every day, and taken time to work on my cake decorating. A friend of mine is getting married in only around a month an she asked me to make her wedding cake! Eeps! I've made simple cakes before for birthdays and such, but never something so important as a wedding cake! I am in the process of decorating a practice cake as we speak...but while the frosting hardens I figured I could sneak in a post. I'm having trouble coming up with a frosting to use though. I don't want to use buttercream so I tried a whipped recipe, but it keeps melting...Oh well, more practicing I suppose! Luckily Sean is going to be taking the practice cakes to his workplace so we don't have them sitting around here going to waste.

















Well, back to decorating!
God Bless,
KJA


Psalm 42:8
But each day the LORD pours his unfailing love upon me, and through each night I sing his songs, praying to God who gives me life.

How fun that you are making the cake! I'm not that good at decorating, I enjoy making cupcakes though!

Love the butterfly scarf!

Oh, that's such an honor that you're able to make your friend's wedding cake! Hmmm, you could use traditional wedding cake frosting (my mom makes it, I don't know if that's actually a kind of frosting or if she just calls it that? It's simple, it's like margarine, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla).

But anyway, that scarf is lovely. It's so big and has just an awesome print on it!
