Omg this cake is gorgeous ! It seem like when I splatter it goes on everything but the cake. I wonder should I get a different brush! I love it though

You so honest Mary. Thank you for teaching newbies like me. Am thinking of starting my cake business at home but I don't know yet. Many things are going through my mind like who will buy and so on. But nevertheless, I will keep watching your videos. Love from a Nigerian.

Thank you;) I know it is scary and I always worried that people would stop ordering, but they didn't! To the point where it actually became too much and that is why I work at a bakery now instead of keeping mine open. But I say give it a go! It was very rewarding at the same time. I also have kids that want to spend time.with me too, so that decided it for me. I did it for 13 years, and they kept ordering;) I would just suggest that you don't overwhelm yourself. I wish you all the luck!

God bless you always, kids and business is not always easy that's why am thinking of starting at home so u can do both together but am just still scared as I don't even know where to start from Lol. But thank you, hopefully someday soon, I will be able to start and grow like you.

You will;) You have the right mindset already. Start small ( friends and family) and soak up as many tutorials as you can. I am self taught too. Besides some Wilton classes;)

It looks nice. I love that look. I did one similar with a plastic spoon. Kinda messy but so easy anyone can do it. This is also something that looks hard but it is very doable.

You're a star honey 🌷 From today I'll watch your tutorials and do a of learning👌🏾👌🏾 What I like about you is that you do a lot of talking then I get to know what I should do and what I should avoid 👋🏽 Thanks a lot for making my work to become easier, because I have not been in this industry for more than a year and I didn't even go for a baking and decorating Course. Baking have been a passion for me since from childhood 😉

Your work is amazing! Do I freeze the cake or just put it in the fridge prior to adding the texture watercolors?
@sophisticakesbymary3 жыл бұрын
Thank you;) you can do either. The fridge just takes a little longer for the buttercream to firm up. About 20 minutes vs 10 in the freezer.
