Dear All,
Decorations we learnt in the class are Star borders, Shells borders, Balls and Beads borders, Star Drop flower, Swirl Drop flower, Rose Buds, Sweet Peas, Writing messages, Leaves , Vines, Roses, Fern and Bows.
The Cornelli Lcce design you see around the side of the cake is completely my addition, it was not taught in the class. Also i have mildly brushed the sides of the rose petals with pink color using a paint brush to give a vibrant effect!
Pin It
From a very long time I was planning to enroll for a cake decoration classes but unfortunately here we donot have anything like http://www.wilton.com/. Infact the only type of cake decoration done here is using buttercream and very little of fresh cream. When i came across decoration classes being held by someone who has done cake decoration courses from Wilton and New York Institute I couldnt resist myself and immediately enrolled.
The class I enrolled was for Basic Buttercream Decorations, it was a 2 day class and the final result is infront of you. We learned different types of buttercream, their consistencies and use. Buttercream can be of 3 types thin, medium and stiff. Thin icing is used for frosting the cakes, writing, leaves, wines etc. Medium consistency is for decorations like star, shells and flowers. Stiff icing is used mainly for roses.
Decorations we learnt in the class are Star borders, Shells borders, Balls and Beads borders, Star Drop flower, Swirl Drop flower, Rose Buds, Sweet Peas, Writing messages, Leaves , Vines, Roses, Fern and Bows.
The Cornelli Lcce design you see around the side of the cake is completely my addition, it was not taught in the class. Also i have mildly brushed the sides of the rose petals with pink color using a paint brush to give a vibrant effect!
Overall i thouroughly enjoyed the class and learnt many different styles and techniques. I would say that these classes were very close to what http://www.wilton.com/ offers keeping in mind the challenges faced for getting the baking and decorating materials. I cant wait to try out her other classes :-)
If anyone is interested to learn about these classes, pls contact me and i will be more than happy to share the details.
Have a wonderful and relaxing weekend!!!

Congrats dear . You have learnt a great art. Cake decoration looks so classic. Very beautiful cake dear.
What a pretty cake! I love the roses and their red rims.
You are very creative...I am taking Wilton classes, in the course 2 they teach royal icing in which the you are taught to apply the color to one side of your bag and make roses which gives the same effect, probably you could try it with butter cream icing.
Wow!!, this is so beautiful the roses are so eye catching, fabulous, aren't you lucky to have some one teach you these things I have some books with me, but this way it is much better and gives you more confidence, it is superb!!, you have done a perfect job
Nice cake! and love the chocoloaty look.. hmm, delicious!
