The wedding went beautifully, everyone had a great time, the bride and groom loved the cake as did the guests. Been a while since a I did a cake for real people, was fun to be back in the trenches!
 
 
 
It is a good feeling seeing smile and hearing how good it was. It validates all the hard work.
Sunday @ 8:41 pm by Sandys Sweets
It does Sandy it does Tara's father shot the cake, so it will be published soon, will let you all know when.
Sunday @ 8:45 pm by kerry
Oh and where!
Sunday @ 8:45 pm by kerry
I'm sure it was just lovely....can't imagine any cake you do that isn't. Can't wait to see the pics! What was the theme and color scheme?
Yesterday @ 8:15 am by Sally Hackney
Oh I bet it was georgeous. I can't wait to see!!!!
Yesterday @ 8:32 am by signaturesweetskim

Yesterday @ 9:59 am by cakesbycarla
No particular theme, silver , white and carmine
Yesterday @ 8:51 pm by kerry
Now you know I had to go Google what colour carmine was LOL
Yesterday @ 9:11 pm by TraciiVCL
Oh dear Tracii, well at least I keep you hopping!! LOL.
Yesterday @ 9:23 pm by kerry
I haven't heard of that colour before or if I did it has left me memory lol;
Yesterday @ 9:35 pm by TraciiVCL
I, too, Traci...don't have a clue what that color is. When will the pics come out Kerry? ....and where will be able to see them??

Casting call for those who are interested!
 
 
 
WHOOT! Cool new show!
Thursday @ 11:19 pm by TraciiVCL
Sounds like a great opportunity!
Friday @ 3:06 am by Justin Lynch
Sounds interesting!!
Friday @ 6:32 am by cakeswithcharacter
Sounds great!!!!!!

Now why couldn't this have shown up twenty years ago while I was still young and attractive???? (oh yeah...I wasn't doing cakes twenty years ago! hahahahaha)
Friday @ 8:21 am by Sally Hackney
Sally you are still young and attractive. Age is just a number and our looks are due to wisdom
Friday @ 8:32 am by redtiaraprincess
Very interesting. My question is...do you have to buy a bunch of materials to be in a competition (like Challenge) or do you get selected and they provide materials? I'm very curious about this :0)
Friday @ 1:25 pm by cakesbycarla
Good question Carla! I saw this earlier and thought the same thing as the costs for Challenge would have been prohibitive for me if I had the stuff to make the cut:)
Friday @ 6:15 pm by julief
Very well said Katherine :)
Friday @ 7:53 pm by Sandys Sweets
Networks will not pay for competitor equipment
Friday @ 10:12 pm by kerry
Consider it an investment in publicity.
Friday @ 10:13 pm by kerry
Oh yes, Sally, I do not have wrinkles I have shrinkles -- my own word for smile lines!
Friday @ 10:14 pm by kerry
I luv watching these shows!
Saturday @ 2:26 am by Debbie Blucher
Shrinkles!! hahahahaha...I love it!!!
Saturday @ 8:03 am by Sally Hackney
You have my leave to borrow it Sally!
Sunday @ 9:52 am by kerry
Yes, Challenge is on at 9 am these days, although it changes.
Sunday @ 7:18 pm by kerry
We had to pay for everthing but was reimbured a small amount.
Sunday @ 9:24 pm by signaturesweetskim
Hey Kim -thanks for your info. Did you have to pay for hotel and airfare too? Or just pay for the cake materials you used for the show? Thanks for your help!
Sunday @ 9:42 pm by cakesbycarla
FNTV pays for hotel and airfare or gas with restrictions. This is a different studio so the criteria may well be very different.
Sunday @ 10:14 pm by kerry
No problem..flight and hotel was paid! Materials we were told how much they would cover.anything more was our expense. Overral great experience....Kerry is right viewed the additional cost as huge investment in publicity!!
Sunday @ 10:20 pm by signaturesweetskim
Thank you Kim & Kerry! Great insight. I might send in my stuff - basically like buying a lottery ticket in mind mind LOL! But want to know what the protocol is just in case. Thanks for the info!
Sunday @ 10:24 pm by cakesbycarla
If you are not in the swim you have no chance -- ask the questions you want to have answered.
Yesterday @ 9:00 pm by kerry
Talked to casting they couldnt give alot of info...but said something about over the top designs... incorporating another medium.? I was confused...LOL

Well, I went to my first WASSA. This was my first cake judgement day, lol. I brought in my submission in my arms...looked at all the colorful realm of awesomeness, looked back down in my arms and just had to laugh...no color really. But, I'll tell ya, I had a great time...there were about 92 entries and I posted pics of lots of them, but not all, on my facebook page under Debbie Blucher. I did have people tell me they my teapot, which was actually inspired by Barbara Chadwick and a picture of one of her teap
 
 
 
Very cool!!
Saturday @ 6:18 am by cakeswithcharacter
It IS cool!!
Saturday @ 8:08 am by Sally Hackney
Very nice
Saturday @ 3:37 pm by redtiaraprincess
It turned out great sometimes all you need is just shading :)
Saturday @ 7:24 pm by Sandys Sweets
Thanks so much! :-)
Sunday @ 7:35 am by Debbie Blucher
Glad you enjoyed your first competitive experience.
Sunday @ 7:51 pm by kerry
I really did. It was very confusing at first. Had no idea what constituted which category for one thing... I was told I was sculpted novelty...not sure at all what that meant and not sure I agreed. But, on another note, I loved the constructive notations by the judges...totally made sense to me. I really do only want to have constructive remarks...can only help in the long run and very much appreciated.
Yesterday @ 3:32 am by Debbie Blucher
The ONLY way to learn!
Yesterday @ 8:59 pm by kerry
I really like this!! A little Tim Burton a lttle Seuss & part stone work..Interesting!!!

Okay guys, please don't be too harsh, this is my first Baby Shower cake as they asked for it. It was chocolate bottom tier and vanilla top tier with choc/coffee mousse (which I hadn't made before either, but it sure did taste good).
 
 
 
Looks good!!
Saturday @ 6:18 am by cakeswithcharacter
Really cute!!!
Saturday @ 8:07 am by Sally Hackney
It's cute!
Saturday @ 1:39 pm by Justin Lynch
Very cute. I have to tell you, I love the stand (I have a small collection of stands).
Saturday @ 3:38 pm by redtiaraprincess
Oh that is so cute :)
Saturday @ 7:25 pm by Sandys Sweets
Ah shucks, lol. I know it's not great, but so appreciate your words :-) I luv cake stands too...this was the one they supplied. If I thought I could get away with collecting ONE more thing, it'd definitely be cake stands, lol. Mr B would look at me and say, as usual, R U Kidding Me??!! No room, lol.
Sunday @ 7:38 am by Debbie Blucher
Love cakestands too, but they are darned hard to find a place to store. Good start to cakedom Debbie.
Sunday @ 7:52 pm by kerry
Thank you very much. I'll probably always be a home cake person making stuff for my family mainly, but I do know I'm going to Reno this year!!!!!!
Sunday @ 9:54 pm by Debbie Blucher
You will have fun!
Sunday @ 10:15 pm by kerry
I definitely plan on it, Kerry. Will you be there?
Yesterday @ 3:32 am by Debbie Blucher
Yes, I will be there!
Yesterday @ 8:58 pm by kerry
No one is ever harsh here Debbie. This is a great bunch with only helpful advice!! Great use of colour for a first baby shower cake!
Yesterday @ 9:28 pm by TraciiVCL
Well Kerry, I will most likely try and to get a picture with YOU, it would be a true highlight for me to meet you in person. I have been a fan of yours for as long as I've been watching and been so entertained by the caking world. I have a lot of respect for someone that sez it like it is and stands by it. Lots to admire and so much more appreciated! Also, thanks Traci :-)

Sunday @ 8:43 pm by Sandys Sweets
Kentucky???
Sunday @ 8:46 pm by kerry
Oh, for next year.
Sunday @ 8:47 pm by kerry

Yesterday @ 8:09 am by Sally Hackney

Evening all! Just got home from the BSG show in Telford; I must I say I was a little disappointed! Considering this show only happens every four years I was expecting big things! There was very good work there, but it is not like Cake International at the NEC in november, I would much recommend that show! Hope everyone's having a good day!
 
 
 
I am uploading my pics to FB as I type!
Saturday @ 1:37 pm by Justin Lynch
Hi Justin, sorry the show wasn't what you thought it would be. OSSA will be a good one.
Saturday @ 3:34 pm by redtiaraprincess
Sorry it wasn't what you expected that is a bummer.
Saturday @ 7:19 pm by Sandys Sweets
;-(
Sunday @ 7:31 am by Debbie Blucher
Sometimes over the years, shows change so maybe this was just a doenturn for them and then next time will be even better!!
Sunday @ 9:52 am by cakeswithcharacter
BSG has had its difficulties over the years, they are still trying to recover.
Sunday @ 7:48 pm by kerry
Thanks Justin for the pics on FB very interesting.
Sunday @ 8:44 pm by Sandys Sweets
So how does OSSAS compare Justin???
Sunday @ 8:48 pm by kerry
Kerry, there is no comparison! OSSAS wins hands down, and I'm not just saying that!
Yesterday @ 1:43 am by Justin Lynch
I saw the pics on FB Justin and boy do I agree....it definitely doesn't compare with OSSAS. That other show you went to last year seemed to be a really high quality show.
Yesterday @ 8:11 am by Sally Hackney
Cake International in November is excellent Sally! I look forward to that every year!
Yesterday @ 4:10 pm by Justin Lynch
I thought you would see amazing work Justin I am surprized!
