Start With A Design

When considering what a cake should look like, there are several questions to answer.

• What is the occasion?
• Who are you celebrating?
• Does the person have any hobbies?
• What are their favorite colors?

As I build this blog, and display my cakes, I will explain how I developed the design for each cake before I ever took out a bowl or pan. Most of the time is spent on the design, which I do in my head, with only a few rough pictures to achieve the correct proportions. I barely use drawings. Some people have more success creating their design on paper. If this is you, then use paper.
