Cupcake Decorating Day!

July 27, 2011 by 19 Comments

Last Thursday Bec, Kim & I headed off to our long-awaited cupcake decorating class! We bought the class as a Groupon offer and it was only £35 for a half-day (12.30-4.30) class. It was run by a company called Create and was held in Liverpool. We had a teensy bit of trouble trying to find the venue haha but everyone else was the same, so we didn't turn up late as we feared! The class was held in an industrial type area, but as soon as we walked into the room, it was all cupcakes, pink … [Read more...]

Breakdown

I was getting up early to feed the animals, and then feeling so weak & tired I had to go back to bed most days until the early afternoon. I have always needed a lot of sleep but that was ridiculous! This week hasn't been so bad, mainly cos we've been so busy trying to get a new rental house sorted out - buying … [Read more...]

The Pink Whisk Cake Decorating Day

July 6, 2011 by 9 Comments

Last week Kim & I headed off to a cake decorating course held by Seasoned Courses. Our tutor was to be none other than Ruth, runner up of The Great British Bake Off and author of The Pink Whisk. Kim & I were both excited but nervous. We even had some Rescue Remedy to calm our nerves before we went in haha! :) I was dreading the class being full of experienced cake decorators but pretty much everyone was in the same boat - ready and willing to learn. I had a cake dilemma the … [Read more...]
