Obviously, I adore cupcakes!
I love decorating cupcakes..I even took a Wilton decorating course..it was fun fun funnn!!
I learned so many great and useful techniques..but their icing is a bit too sweet for me..and I thought their food colors have that inky flavor so I'm not a big fan when it comes to their recipes and stuff :p
I just like their techniques and decorating tips :D
I've a couple of tips from the course, but I'm that kind of person that won't be satisfied until I have the whole package..So I ordered them :D and they're one their way to me! AS WE SPEAK :D
Yaaaaay!
Anyway, I also ordered some books :)
More from Magnolia - Allysa Torey
Who isn't aware of Magnolia Bakery :) Known for their unbelievably delicious cupcakes, Jennifer Apple & Allysa Torey founded this bakery and it was an immediate success! People from all over the States fly to New York just to try there sweets!! This is Ms. Torey's second book..the first book's reviews weren't as good as this book..so I thought I'd get this one :D
My second order is.. Crazy About Cupcakes - Krystina Castella
I bought this book based on the fact that it got no 1-star reviews..and most of its reviews were 5-stars. Also, this book claims it has nearly 300 awesome cupcake ideas :D and its 256 pages long..and I loooove big books so I ordered it :)
The third and last book I ordered is Martha Stewart's Cupcakes: 175 Inspired Ideas for Everyone's Favorite Treat
I've been waiting for this book since forever! and I forgot about it for a while..so when I found this book while browsing..I immediately ordered it! I didn't bother reading the reviews cuz I trust Martha and I don't care what people say of her let alone her books :p I think I'm excited the most about this book :D no no scratch that..all the excitement I'm feeling is caused by this book!
Okay folks..This is it for today :D Ta ta for now xoxo

7aram 3alaiiiiiiiik :P
ReplyDeleteIt's a course that teaches you the fundamentals of cake decorating..it consists of 3 courses..1 being for beginners.
course 2 teaches you more decorating techniques. And course 3 introduces you to fondant
About the books, I ordered them online :) I strongly suggest you get the martha stewart book..the other two, in my humble opinion, are a waste of money!
I don't really buy the frosting..I do it at home :D the frosting I found at the supermarkets were toooooo sweet for my taste :s
Hope I helped :D
