Today's posting about my cake decorating class last night, marks my 40th post as the Nurse-Chef. I am very happy that I have been able to share these stories, recipes, and anecdotes about my life and my work with the 4-6 of you who probably already know all of it to begin with! Cheers to you, my readers!
Last night's class was awesome. We did very simple star techniques, learned about the different icing consistencies, and got some easy and useful insights and tips about the actual baking of a cake to make it taste good, and be optimum for decorating.
For our next class in 2 weeks, we each need to bake a cake, and bring it in undecorated. We need to make, from scratch, two batches of Wilton's frosting, and any filling we desire for the aforementioned cake. My poor mother's kitchen...it might not survive. By the way, did you know that if you add some meringue powder to frosting, it forms a sort of skin that helps to facilitate better decorating? I only just found out. This class is going to be very informative.
