Rainbow Cake

by Erica

I felt like such an overachiever yesterday at cake decorating class. Really, I didn't intend to be. I was just the only one who followed the directions of what to bring. I felt bad for the cake instructor. She told the class that we could either make a character cake or a rainbow cake. The instructions for both were in our book.

Someone brought orange icing for a basketball cake, someone else made blue and white checkers. Huh? The cake was supposed to be pre-iced in blue frosting. Someone iced theirs in white, two others just brought an unleveled cake straight from the oven. I felt like I was sitting among a bunch of my former students. I would give them a set of directions and I would get so many variations of what I would ask for.

Cake teachers pet or not, I am really enjoying the class. Oh, and I have another cake order for this weekend. It is for a six year-olds sports themed birthday. I am going to try to make this cake.
