Many modern cake decorators started as hobbyists in their careers. They are able to express themselves in an edible form. Cakes for many of life's occasions, from baptisms and birthdays to weddings and anniversaries, are available or buy decorated cakes for many of life's occasions. Decorated cakes can help carry out any party or event's theme.
Did you know that cake decorators use at least six different types of icings? They may use more than one type of cake depending on the type of cake. Some help keep the layers together like glue. Some form styles better. Others form designs. And yet, other types of icings or frosting add details..
