Buttercream Basics

 I gave a class on buttercream basics at The Quirky Carrot in Alexandria.

 There were six people in the class.

 Everyone got a cupcake and a 6" cake to decorate.

 After my demo, everyone went to town on their cakes.

 Here's a pic of Julia, who owns the Carrot, taking pix of a busy student.

 Lots of different techniques. Here a gal attempts basketweave...and did a great job!

 Cupcake with green shells.

 A sunflower cupcake in the making.

 This cake ended up as a beautiful underwater scene replete with seaweed and fish.

 More basketweave.

 Good piping bag techniques...

 Here's the underwater scene getting its fishy.

 Attempting stringwork and lace. Wow!

The graduating class with their handywork. Well done class of 2014!
