Back to Class 4

18 March 2010

Yeah...finally, I completed all four Wilton Method Basic Courses!
I learned a lot...tips, recipes, techniques, using tools & a lot more.
I made new friends .....with same interest, we bonded and we shared.
                                        
The last of the troops:
(Unfortunately our usual WMI, Nahdzah cannot make it. WMI Sharifah,her replacement for the day)

Fantasy flowers, carnations, daises, sugar box and draping...these are the few that we learned

Pink tones flowers, pink 'handkerchief ' style cover, pink border, pink base....so many pink! Not my favorite color though. But somehow those tiny white ribbons & dots balance out the total pink look....my thoughts anyway! Don't know if you have the same opinion!

Back to Class 3

26 December 2009

A perfect ending to my 2009 cake activities...my Wilton Fondant & Tiered Cakes workshop. The same five ladies plus two new ones. One of them is a 16 year old girl. Wow..

We learned to decorate a square cake...gift cake. I have done a similar cake design a few times before but nonetheless, I get to learn a few more useful tips from the instructor. Cool...

Next are these royal icing flowers: Poinsettia (pink), Morning Glory (Purple), Petunia(Yellow) and Easter Lily (White). They takes awhile to dry but a good alternative to gumpaste flowers.

My roses...Wilton style:

My final cake:

Back to Class 2

7 November 2009

In midst of baking & decorating, 'magically' I can still find time to continue with Wilton Method Cake Decorating Course 2 (Flowers & Borders). It was for about 3 hours for four consecutive Saturdays. Besides I get to meet friends...only 5 of us left from the first course.
These are what we did...clockwise from the top left hand corner : daffodils, Wilton rose, swirl rose, daisy, faces, shell borders,primrose, pansy, apple blossom, rose bud, chrysanthemum, violet, weaving & another shell border. Amazing...all royal icing flowers.

And what's more amazing is that we had to complete a flower basket cake for the final class, Nov 7. Look at all beautiful flower baskets... aaaaa, too pretty to eat.

Next...Course 3 ( Fondant & Tiered Cakes)

Back to Class 1

I went to Wilton Method Cake Decorating Course 1 in June/July,conducted by WMI Nahdzah at Yummie Bangi. Just for 2 hours for 4 Saturdays... to improve my skills & to learn some new ones.
Gained a lot...both knowledge & friends.

27 June 2009
Just introduction & some demonstration by the WMI. Also getting to know Wilton products as we are going to use them in the upcoming classes.

4 July 2009
We learned pattern transfer & decorating using buttercream stars. Look at my rainbow!!!



11 July 2009

Wilton Roses...look, the centre rose is done by my WMI & the rest is my effort. Spot the difference? At least they look like roses. Hmm...need more practice!



We also learned some new techniques & then decorated some cupcakes. Everyone had a wonderful time turning their plain cupcakes into beautiful ones. We even make clowns!



18 July 2009
Final Class! Our turn to show the skills gained the last three Saturdays.This is what I came up with..."Rose Garden".



The "graduates" with WMI Nahdzah & our creations. Look at all the proud faces!



Looking forward to next courses...2 & 3.
