Hi Erica, thanks for your nice compliment. I get my ideas from looking at cake galleries and I usually combine a couple cakes that I like into one. I like a more simplistic approach. How long have you been decorating cakes?
I've done most of my cakes for family as well. No, I haven't taken any classes, self taught using online resources. I've only been doing cakes for 4 months, so I have a lot to learn. I'm sure I am doing a whole lot of skills way backwards, but I can't see spending $100 or more right now on classes. I would, however, like to take a sugar flower class!
Hi Erica, thanks for your request and your kind comment about my work, I sent a Crown to Texas last year............... I send crowns all over the world which is great!
What do you think about toppers in general? do you use ? make your own?
I seem to be the only dedicated topper maker on thi site?
speak soon

Hi Erica! thanks for the compliment! I love your cakes too! Did you make your figures out of fondant? I have been wanting to try some figurines and people and things! I also get a lot of ideas from watching cake shows (Ace of Cakes, Cake Boss and challenges) Watch and learn is what I try to do! Have fun! Hope we can continue to share ideas :)
well you know... i do not have a shop.. but yes i do make them... and i am compensated most of the time! :) i have a local kitchen i can use if needed that is a licensed approved facility. I am making my first actual wedding cake on June 5 for our music leader at church. i am very nervous and excited all together. I know where that shop is located in Sugar land.. but right now no funds to take their course.. i am sure it is good... according to the fee they charge! but i live at least 45 to 1 hour away from sugar land.. i am about 40 miles north of Houston.. Well off to the supply store.. have you been to Amazin cake supply off of Bissonet? i think they just moved to Bellaire Blvd this month? It is a long drive and would really like to know if it would be worth driving over there. THanks
HI, ERICA THANK YOU FOR ADD ME TO YOUR FRIEND LIST. THANKS FOR YOUR COMPLIMENT. I MAKE CAKES FOR THE LAST 19 YEARS, AND TEACH IN MY ONLINE WORKSHOP FOR FIVE YEARS NOW, MY PASSION FINE BAKERY. SEE YOU AROUND. HAVE A SWEET DAY.
Hi! I'm a beginner in the cake decorating world, but I truly fell in love. I would love to take actual culinary classes or classes at the art institute for it. By chance, are you the same Erica from Tomball who made my daughter's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse bday cake last year?
