For this weeks Wilton class we were told to either A) bring in another frosted cake or B) bring in 8 frosted cupcakes. I opted for the cupcakes because I wanted to try something different! The cupcakes were red velvet cake frosted (again) with the buttercream. The cupcakes tasted awesome, but the decorating didn't go quite so well.

It's not that decorating them was hard, just time consuming. But then again, that's the same scenario with the cakes. The most time consuming part is filling your bags, switching tips, etc. That takes up the bulk of your effort! So unfortunately, I only was able to make a few cupcakes. But I did learn a lot of great new techniques that I will try next week in class for our final cake.
Okay so not the most pretty, but definitely learning the flower trick:

And the token, weird Wilton clown... this thing is a sugar coma waiting to happen:

So that's that. Just one more class and I will have 'graduated' from course one!
