I had planned on reporting to you from Chicago, while attending a mini cake decorating class at Wilton School of Cake Decorating & Confectionery Art last month with 19 other food writers. But I was so busy learning about all that Wilton as a company has to offer bakers and how to decorate cakes that time got away from me.
Wilton — celebrating its 80th anniversary — is the company when it comes to celebrations for every occasion. From everything you could possibly need to make a special occasion cake or cupcake to shaped cake pans.
While in their facilities, I photographed some of the cakes their team designed and wanted to share them with you. Two of these are made using the cupcake pan that’s been offered in our Marketplace. (Don’t miss out on a chance to win Wilton’s Dimensions Large Cupcake Pan, along with the 2009 Wilton Yearbook, in our Marketplace – a prize that will be available again in November ’08 and January ’09.)
If you’re interested in learning how to make these creations, head to the school I attended in Darien, Illinois or check the class schedules at a Jo Ann or Michaels store near you. You can locate a class offering near you on Wilton.com.
I must be pleased for sharing your ideas. Thank you for the good writes up. It’s a brilliant job.
