There is a sense of pleasure I get when creating different cake and icing flavors, designing the look of a cake, and carrying out the process. I have taught myself how to decorate cakes. Growing up I loved to use my mom's big pastry bags to decorate cookies, make my own birthday cake, and play around with decorating things when I could. I was also fortunate to help decorate cakes at Dairy Queen, which allowed me to practice different techniques and decorations.
Once I was older, I started buying my own supplies and have begun to work on my skills even more so. Here are some pictures of cakes I have made:
A Little Add-On:
One person I admire to is the "Cake Boss". I love watching him work and always wish I could have as many opportunities to decorate cakes. If you don't know who the Cake Boss is, check out this YouTube video and see for yourself.

For me, cake decorating is therapeutic and a lot of fun. I LOVE decorating cakes. If any of you are interested in me making a cake or cupcakes, let me know!

My goal is to one day have all the fancy tools like he does and be able to create beautiful masterpieces.
