Wilton Cake Decorating Course 3 – Fondant and Tiered Cakes – My Final Cake & Others

Pictured on the left is my final cake for Wilton Cake Decorating Course 3: Fondant and Tiered Cakes. I say it looks alright. I could tell that I am improving my cake decorating skills. Not bad for my first tiered cake eh? I’m still surprised by how much I learned from taking these Wilton courses. The most rewarding part about these courses is now I could make cakes for my children for all their birthdays and also I could make my husband’s birthday cakes. I’m always happy to make cakes for my family at no charge, only now I get to have fun decorating it. My daughter’s 2nd birthday is coming up on Valentine’s Day, so I get to do her cake! I’m very excited for that. I’m looking forward to the challenge. It takes a lot of time to make tiered cakes. lol…

Anyways, I want to write more about my class… I say I had the most fun doing in the last class of Course 3, because all we had to do was work on our final cake. I had fun designing my simple tiered cake. Too bad I didn’t have the suggested cake pan size to use… It was supposed to be a 6″ and 10″… but I only had 8″ and 9″ at home, so that’s why my cake looks like that. I also picked out a different construction method for my cake – the Stacked Construction method, where I have to put the cake right on top of the other. It’s my favorite method, because it makes the cake look like one big whole cake. I don’t like the pillars, but it’s my own personal preference. I also took pictures of other people’s cakes from my class. They all did a great job on their cakes and I wish for all these cake decorators the best on their cake decorating venture.

Some pictures of other people’s cakes are as follows:

Everybody did a great job on their cakes, don’t you think? I have more pictures, but I’m not going to post them all up here.
