Cake Decorating

Jesikah has this dear young woman leader (actually several).  Her name is Clarisse Warren, and she is a professional cake decorator.  Jesikah really wanted to learn cake decorating for one of her projects for young women, so she asked Sister Warren (as she goes by at church) if she could come and help her sometime when she was making a cake or just watch and learn. 

Sister Warren has had Jesikah over multiple times to help her with cakes, teach her things, and Jesikah always comes home with her own personal cake too.  Jesikah has learned a lot and has gotten really good.  Below are some of the cakes she has made as part of this project (she has done WAY over 10 hours):


Flip-flop made of fondant

Shoes made of fondant


More shoes

And more...


There was another cake that we made for St Patrick's Day that was a color gradient cake, but for some reason only half of the picture will come up on Blogger.  There were 3 segments of cake that got progressively darker, but you can't really see it.





Cake Jesikah made for Anne (her friend that was moving)



Jesikah taught us the smoothing technique for these cakes

This is one of the cakes she helped Sister Warren with

And she was with Sister Warren she made these angry bird cakes too.
Jesikah has spent a lot of time with Sister Warren while learning to make these cakes, and has learned a lot.  I am so grateful for all the time Sister Warren has spent with her!

Cake decorating is a great skill to have. Jesikah is lucky to have someone who can show her the ropes. The cakes she has made/helped with are beautiful.
