Fondant and Gumpaste Cake Decorating Class

This month I took my third cake decorating class. It was the Wilton’s Fondant and Gumpaste class. I learned how to make different flowers from gumpaste and fondant, including roses, calla lilies, carnations, mums, daisies. We also learned how to make big bows and learn some techniques for working with fondant and gumpaste.It was a fun four week long class. Here are some pictures:




My final project was a pumpkin walnut cake with maple cream cheese frosting. I covered it with homemade white fondant and decorated it with sugar mums and leaves in fall colors. It was delicious!
