I appreciate good designs and those include decorations on top of cakes. I am not that good in baking although I can whip up simple recipes like banana cakes, fruit cakes, and muffins.
What I haven't attempted doing is making my cakes look sensational with the help of beautiful candied flowers and colorful icing. I don't think I have the artistic leaning nor the patience. Besides, in my family of five males and one female, it would be amazing if a newly baked cake could be left on the table for long :p
My mom and my sister though both have the qualities of a good cake decorator. As Ms. Sandra Folsom (of the highly acclaimed Wilton School in Illinois, USA) said during the press con yesterday, anybody who wants to become a good decorator must have enough patience and determination to learn.
Me? I'd rather gladly taste what more creative people would make :D
