Luckily, it doesn't look terribly difficult. My suggestion? Do it as early as you can. I was the Matron of Honor at my friends wedding and I was supposed to drop it off Friday afternoon, so I could spend Friday night and Saturday all...

Quote psurrette - Think about how many started with Wilton. Thank god they had classes and product to buy when there wasn't anyone or anything else to buy. You got me there, psurrette! If I hadn't taken the Wilton classes, I would not...

Toba Garretts fondant, which is on this website. I swear by it. It is quick to make and yummy, yummy, yummy. I put in vanilla extract for the extract (I think she recommends orange or something).I guess if you are into doing hobby...

I made a car for my dad last year. It is in my photos. I made it out of one 9x13, cut a few inches off, put that on top in the center to make the roof and then carved it to look like a t-bird. If I were to charge for that cake, I...

oops - I forgot to add the attachment. Also, the finished car had a bum hanging out of the window to moon the world. But, I wasn't sure if that was considered a "naughty" cake. Oh, and that is the title of the book, not dirty cakes. ...

I made a T-Bird for my dad last year. I am going to try and attach it. I carved it to get what I wanted. So, if you want it on a 9x9 pan, I would bake a 9x9 cake, cut off about 2 inches or a little more on one side. Then, the pieces...
