Louisiana/Texas DOS at tcturtleshell's

I am still so bummed that I wasn't able to make it..... I heard you all had a blast and another DOS is being considered for October????? I will walk to that one if necessary!!

I'm glad you all had such a great time and I really want your technique for the BC roses.....I heard it was so simple!

Can you explain how you do it.....or better yet, you should take pictures of each step and post it as a tutorial! Any ideas to make roses easier, I want to know about!!

MAYBE NTERTAYNEME YOU COULD DO A TUTORIAL ON HOW TO DO THE BC ROSES ON A STICK. I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN LEARNING THE TECHNIQUE TOO.

Thank you so much!!!

I'm sooo jealous! I wish I could have attended the dat of sharing.

Glad you all had fun!

Hey, hey, hey!!!! I finally have time to get on CC!! I have been shopping for stuff for a wedding cake I have due Sat.

We had a wonderful time!! I'm so sorry everyone wasn't able to come! It was understandable though! WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER DOS IN THE FUTURE!! Don't know when though. If we get enough people signed up I might be able to hold it at the Fire Dept... never know! Or one of the other gals might have one. You never know!

Ntertayneme was a great teacher! I'm so glad she was there to help me out! Her BC roses on a stick were great! I will never go back to the wilton rose again. I'll have to get her to do a post on it!! Hint, hint!!

This was the first time I ever taught anything... I'm so country that my grammer is horrible!!!! I goofed up a few times!! Thank goodness by best friend was there to finish my sentences for me!!

Ntertayneme you fed my dog too much!!! I thought I told you to take him home w/ you,

The dog, DH & kids didn't leave town because DH was sick w/ allergies. Jeff didn't bring home any snakes or gaters!! Everyone was happy w/ that!!

We learned fondant roses, tulips (small & large), daisies, narcisis. BC roses on a stick. MMF, thanks Misdawn!!! I love that stuff!!!!! Several different techniques. Color flow. We had so much fun that we ran out of time for a few things!!! I didn't get to show the tuxedo strawberries, royal icing or FBCT or Gel transfers. We went on a field trip (that's what Misdawn called it, ) to my friends Cake Supply Store. Everyone loved it!!! Playing w/ the MMF was my favorite part!!!!! Of course the BC roses on a stick!! Meeting & putting faces to friends I've met on CC was awsome!!!

I think Ntertayneme might put the pics she took on her website. Did you do that yet? Don't show me if I look goofy!! Just picking!! I wished Jackie would let us put the pics on CC but I understand the rules.

We had so much food!!!! Yummy!!!!!! I had friends over last night & they helped us eat all the food!! I don't know what we would have done w/ all that food!!

SPECIAL THANKS TO.....

Ntertayneme for helping me w/ the food & teaching!!!! Thanks to Misdawn for helping me get a few things ready before eveyone arrived!!!! Thanks to Boo-Boo for helping me w/ everything!!!! Thanks to CIndy for helping me w/ the before stuff!! It was so nice to meet ya'll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I forgot anything I'll be back to post it!!!

Ntertayneme & Misdawn you can add to this!!!

You are wonderful people!!!!!!!

~TC~

YOU CAN HAVE JAKE!! And that darn kitten Jeff brought home!!!! And I can't forget Mandy's cat!!! Take em' all!!!! But leave my DH!! Can't get rid of him

I went to the store today!! Jean & Kaye were so delighted to have you all come in! They were happy w/ the extra business too!! I'll take you anytime!! Jean helped me w/ making a few decisions fo the 2 cakes I have coming up. She also gave me some free stuff!!! That's always nice!!

Oh.......... I'm adorable, I'm adorable!!! You're too sweet!!!!!

I forgot.... you left a few things behind..... you left your apron, your rose tool, wooden spatula, 1 bag, tip & coupler & your bucket of crisco. I'm going to mail you everything but the crisco! Weighs too much It might not be till next week though. I'll be busy w/ the wedding cake this week.

Thanks for leaving the tea cakes!! YUMMY!!!! We love them!!!!!!

I finally looked at you're website. It looks great!! You forgot to teach me how to do one!!

Wait till you see the cake I've got lined up for Aug 27th!! I'm going to cover it w/ MMF!!!!!!!!!!! Yea!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm excited w/ this one!!

Ok... I've got a lot of gallery pics to catch up on so I better go! TTYL, ~T~

Tina,
Your cakes look great, I was wondering How did you get the "Tina's Cakes" on them? I love your basket weave. The Chocolates making me Hungryyyyyy,,, hehehe
~Sweet =0)

Okay, now, I'm waiting for someone to post pics of the rose on a stick! Funny, that reminds me of the Food Network "Unwrapped" series they are always having. Lastnight they touched on some carnival food items and they were mostly on a stick! I love that show!! So, anyway, how 'bout some instructions here for those of us who couldn't join you guys this past weekend?! Come on, now, don't hold back! I need to know the step-by-step instructions for the MMF and now the rose on a stick! I haven't met any of you, but I love you guys. You all make my day. Tarina

Hey Tina..I'd take Jake anyday! He's too cute and really sweet! I hope we didn't make him too sick. Poor baby! I hope your MMF cake turns out well (I'm sure it will!) Can't wait to see pictures. We definitely have to do another DOS again! I had a blast.
I am so glad I learned the rose on a stick trick. I never knew how to make roses before last weekend. I was so excited I went home and made my boyfriend a red velvet cake (his favorite)just so I could practice my roses!
And the next time I'm in Shreveport I will definitely bring more cash with me so I can splurge at Cake Creation Supplies!

Oops sorry.
