This was my cake for Course 3, Lesson 1. I just wanted to have a little fun and exaggerate some of the techniques that we learned. For instance, I piped the "delicate" cornelli lace with a 5 tip. This cake is 3 six inch layers. I used the canned Wilton chocolate icing and homemade buttercream for the piping. I really enjoyed this cake. I wish I could perfect bow making. It was much easier to make them on a flat table top in class instead of on the side of a cake. I will be working on that. Thanks!
