I am writing about how I believe that I make kickin cakes. I follow steps to my recipes. i also experiment. i make changes to the recipes. i like doing different things. my cousin said i am the next cake boss-no way! i make things interesting. I like to do different patterns or create from memory. i like to make sure every one is pleased. i am disappointed if others are. my wife helps with creations too. i do the baking and most of the icing. my wife creates fondant and gumpaste pieces. flowers and shapes. she likes to work with that stuff because she says its like playing with playdough. Just like being a kid! i don't like it because I can't control it as well i think. i like watching the shows to see what new ideas i can come up with. i want to own my own bakery someday. well on our way. my wife says i have to graduate and work for someone for while before i can go on my own. I like doing the bakery stuff on the side. we do cupcakes too. its fun to see what i can do with such a small area. we do a lot of candy pieces and chocolate piece. make names and words out of candy. really stands out on a cake. made a baby shower cake and everyone loved it. got stood up on a wedding cake. glad we did not have to do that because i doubt we would have gotten paid. bride asked if she could pay for her cake with food stamps. i said no. she wanted her cake topper to spin on a motor. i said no. i am glad we did not do that cake. my wife does most of the bookings for us i just do the creating mostly. my son is the only boy in 4h doing cake decorating. i am going to teach him how to make kickin cakes too. he really likes it. my other son likes to help my wife with the candy making. i am going to teach my sons how to cook because that is a life skill they will always need.

Are you taking Baking class? I am taking Baking class this summer, and making cakes is realy interesting for me! But I don't have good skill, so I just follow recipes. You may be a good baker!
