This is one of my dream in baking tools a Revolving Cake Stand......I had it last Christmas from my profit in selling mini cake..... I got it from one of my blog that I follow Love2Bake Co. ....... It is cheaper than ordinary turntable we saw in the market, I try to canvass this in the store where I always buy a boxes and I noticed that it's very expensive because the item it cost one thousand plus additional my transportation and effort.....while this item I bought, my expenses only is less than one thousand plus a shipping fee of eighty pesos and less effort and we only transact through email and in face book and I pay through Bank.....it's convenient for me and it's really fast, I'll pay today, the next day the item is already in my hand. Don't hesitate to try shopping online it's convenient and of course a legitimate transaction.....   :-)

A Basket of Yellow Flowers

just to show my new Revolving Cake Stand

Flavor:       Chocolate
Design:       Basket of Flowers
Frosting:    Butter Cream


My first try to make a basket weave design...excited using of my NEW basket weave tip # 48, flower nail and a revolving cake stand.

Thinking basket weave design is an easy way to frosting the cake, you not need to smooth the entire part of the cake, but you must need to apply frosting to have a based for your desired design, if you notice the top view of the cake in the beginning part of the design it has a dark spot or you can see the chocolate cake, for my part it's hard for me to smooth and cover the cake that's why I put on flowers, originally number is only three, I don't like the outcome of the top and it become bouquet of flowers......
