Ohh Great ! I’ll hafta Check you out on the Gram ! 👍🏼

[@annette9747]

The instruction you provide in your tutorias far exceed the instruction received in the pastry and baking arts courses I attended at a well known culinary school. Thank you so much!

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

You are welcome 😊..... and sadly that is not the first time I've heard that. I'm glad you are finding our videos useful. I know from my own experience in school that they touched on piping skills a bit but there wasn't too much depth to the instruction so when I'm teaching I try to include all of the details that I myself would have found useful when I was just starting out. happy Decorating!

[@grandmafrosty]

Thank you so much for this. I'm making my first wedding cake this week, and all of the tutorials to really make it look nice are wonderful

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

You are so welcome and good luck with the cake! The first wedding cake is always exciting and a little scary, or at least it was for me. Have fun and happy decorating!

I say “Push, pull, push, pull, push, pull.” out loud lol

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

Thank you to the male counter part for asking to show the close up of the piping tips. 👍I’m new and I like to see close ups of the piping tips used. I wouldn’t know what a 102 or any other number tips are as I don’t have numbers on my tips 😞 Thank you for your tutorial, I have enjoyed watching and learning from you.

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

You’re welcome 😊

Hi, Omg you are an awesome teacher. Thank you so much!!!. I have a question I have to make a full sheet cake and am placing a sugar sheet on top that is much smaller than the cake ok. What border you recommend me to use?

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

Aww you're too sweet! So glad you are liking our videos! that is a good question. A choice like that one is always very personal. If it's something like a photo I might pick a color from the photo that would complement without standing out and then something simple for the border like a shell or bead with a plain tip. If it's something like a princess themed print I would pick a matching color and possibly do something more ornate with some flourishes. If it's a corp logo I might go with a white plain outline or pull a color for the logo. It really depends on the subject matter and how much you want the border to stand out or just fade into the background. I hope this helps! Good luck with the order!

[@indikarajapaksha3477]

Hi my name is Ronald, I would like to learn how to write on cake, I wondered if you have face to face classes.

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

Hi Ronald, We are not currently teaching in person lessons but thank you for letting us know you are interested in them and thanks for the idea, I'll add writing to my list of content.

thanks for the love Cecelia!

[@iansabeautie7845]

What tip ur using

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

the star tip we are using is a 21 and the round is. a 12. But you can use these same techniques with various sizes of star and round tips!

[@jasminmdiaz214]

Can you do the beads without a tip?

[@CakeDecoratingSchool]

the short answer to that is yes you can. You can cut bags to mimic tips but since the openings lack rigidity you won't get exactly the same effect every time you squeeze. Hope this helps!

[@indranipathma7454]

Thank you so much and nozzles number please
