Cake Art

[cannongal]

I bought a Wilton cookie cutter shaped like a big snowflake and as I was perusing their line of goods I saw everything the average person could possibly need to make their own work of art. For example, sugar flowers were pre-made, all one had to do was place them where you want them. They have a ton of stuff available. One needn't be an artist to achieve a certain look. Is that cheating?

I call it using my time & resources wisely. We have a cake decorating supply store near me that sells every part of the cake (including the blank cakes in various sizes) pre made. Sheets of fondant, flowers & other objects, even edible strings of pearls. Sure, I know how to make all that shit, but I've gotten lazy in my old age and would rather pay a few dollars more for the pre made pieces, and just assemble when I get home. It's well worth not having to wash 200 pans, bowls, pastry bags, frosting tips, ETC
