Happy Anniversary to ME!

I got the greatest anniversary gift ever! Philip signed me up for the Wilton Cake Decorating Course I. I LOVE it! I got my preset a little early since the class started in the middle of August but the class ends the night before our 3rd anniversary so it works out nicely.

I am having a blast with these classes. I think my skills have already improved quite a bit just between the last two cakes I made.

Next week is the finale cake and we got to pick out what cake we want to make. I'm rather excited about that. The first two cakes have to be specific cakes and while they are good cakes for using the techniques they aren't really cakes I would have chosen to make.

This is the first cake....Not wonderful but not super....And the second cake...

It just so happened to be Philip's soldier's birthday the day I made the cake...so that was an easy cake to give away. We like to get the cakes out of the house as soon as I finish them so we aren't tempted to make them.

Stay tuned for my finale cake! :)
