hello everyone, I'm newbie here, good to know that ppl of the same interest share great ideas and photos of our efforts.  Just uploaded some of mine.. I'm so inspired to try other styles as what i can see from others..  Keep the cakes coming!

 

Grace here, currently in Kuala Lumpur... I'm from Philippines.

Hello All.  My name is Bonnell and I joined a few days ago.  I've been baking and decorating for about 3 yrs now but as a hobby since I work full time as an RN.  I'm excited I will be able to start selling some cakes in less than a month due to our new Cottage Food law here in Texas.  Not sure I understand all the ins & outs of the law yet but I'll get there soon (actually, the tax part is what I'm unsure of).  Hope to learn some new techniques here.  Thanks to everyone for sharing their talent.

Hi Everyone!  It has always been about the taste of the cake for me!  But last fall I decided cakes should look as good as they taste!  So I am learning to decorate!  I have slowly built up my arsenal of tools, taken all the Wilton classes that are easily available in my area and last month took a roadtrip vacation to Nashville to take Fondant classes.   I believe practice makes perfect, my teenaged son is actually getting sick of cake, so any potluck or event we are invited to, I always bring a cake.  I would eventually like to get into cakes as a business, but for now I am happy to delight my friends, family and church community with my sweet treats!

Welkom Gertiemeke

Love your name.  Do they call you Gertie.   My former supervisor was Dutch.  I was in homecare for 20 yrs., now just retired, and I had a lot of Dutch clients here in Canada ( Ontario ). Such wonderful, sweet people. 

Hi,

      I'm from Central Jersey, I joined the site a couple of days ago. I've been building cakes almost a year now. I've been an elevator mech for 23 yrs and have been doing home renovations my whole life. So its safe to say I have a strong construction background, LOL.

     My cake hobby started as a challenge from my wife. last September we were watching an episode of The Cake Boss, he was making a building. So the my construction eye was picking out all the imperfections. Lines weren't straight, walls were wavey, things were sagging. Thats when my wife turned to me and said," do you think you can do better". LOL. So now I'm called "The Cake Constructor".

     I enjoy this hobby alot, it is a perfect outlet for me to be creative.

Thank you so much June ;)) Actualy they call me Tineke I think there are a lot of Dutch people in Canada , Nice to hear your experience with Duth people are so good ;)) Do you happen to speak à little Duth too ?
Have a nice weekend, its sunny outhere I hope it nice there to

Ah.....Tinke, hace heard that name many times.  No, unfortunately, I do not speak Dutch.  My husband is Polish, and I know only a few words in that language as well.  He cannot speak fluently anymore, but does understand simple Polish.  But the mind is a computer, and all that Polish is "stored". We are now both retired, and plan in the coming years, visit Poland.  All his language will come back when he is immmersed in the sound of it.  When he came to Canada at 3 yrs. old, he didn't learn english until he went to school.

It is hot as "you know what" here, and we hav not had significant rain for weeks.  My garden is suffering.  But since it is SO hot outside, better to stay inside with the AC on and practice my cake decorating!!!!!!

Enjoy your weekend too Tinke.  I am going away with friends tomorrow for a few days of R & R.
