Daily Tiffin - Decorating Cakes


In this episode of the Daily Tiffin I try to explain how to decorate cakes - more specifically, Birthday Cakes!

I share with you my experiences in decorating the Birthday Cakes that I've made for my children together with photographs. It's really not all that difficult and once you've practiced a few times, you sort of get the hang of it!

Each cake in the montage above can be seen in more detail, complete with an explanation of how it was done, when you read the full article over at the Daily Tiffin!

My cake decorating skills have been dormant for a few months. This weekend I have assigment for a teenager. So I will read the article to glean some techniques and inspiration.

Glamah,
Would love to hear how it went. My daughter's birthday is this Sunday so I'm cracking my head now figuring what to do!

Val,
Would sure love to see your cakes. The hula Girls sound fantastic!

Anna,
thanks for the compliment. The Fruit Cake is my Mom's recipe and SHE made it with a little help from me and my wife. So I will need to go and get it from her - that's why I didnt post the recipe originally, NOT because I dont want to share!!
