I have only decorated one cake and I already am obsessed with wanting to do more. I spend hours on this site looking at the fantastic work of you all and can't wait to start practicing! All I think about is cakes, if I see someone's shirt, I think, that print would make a great cake. Now I just have to get started! Thank you all for your talents and inspiration!

I hate to warn you, BUT it just gets worse with each new technique you accomplish. I started decorating in 1978, but had, had a love for it before that as a child, when I decorated cookies like crazy. I would drive my mother crazy with icing all over the kitchen.

I husband tells people that come over, you better not sit still too long she will be putting icing on you or piping flowers in your hair!!!!

As far as Cake recipes, I will probably never try all of them, I just can't pass one up.

I think I have pass obsession.... I think I am possessed icon_surprised.gificon_eek.gif
