Some cherry blossoms...
More peonies...
And a few roses...
We've loved having a chance to play with some new flowers and some new colors, and can't wait to share some pretty cake designs and projects in the coming months!
And finally...we have some fun updates to share about Online Learning!
We are SO excited to announce we have been busy doing more filming of online tutorials for our sugar flowers!
We were very grateful to have the opportunity to teach on the Craftsy platform last year, and so appreciate all of you who signed up for the class and shared your photos and experiences. Once we had fulfilled our contract, we decided it was time to grow a bit, try something new, and participate in some exciting teaching opportunities that had come our way. While our Hand-Crafted Sugar Flowers class (hydrangea and filler flowers) is still available for sale and lifetime viewing on the Craftsy site, please know we are no longer answering student questions.
We are thrilled to announce we are now a part of a collaboration of cake artists who have come together to create an online learning site called Cake Masters...bringing you some of the finest artists from all over the world! Here are a few of our featured Instructors:
- Kaysie Lackey
- Carlos Lischetti
- Karen Portaleo
- Richard Festen of Baking Arts
- Tracy James of Cotton & Crumbs
- Mignon Daymond of Cakeface
- Michelle Rea of Inspired by Michelle
- Linda Harden and the team at Whimsical Cakehouse in Australia
- Trina Thomson
- Rouvelee Ilagan
...with a few more wonderful artists to be announced soon!
Together we will be sharing our favorite techniques and some beautiful cake projects, and offering a wide range of cake decorating tutorials covering figurines, sugar flowers, basic to advanced cake decorating techniques, baking, wedding cakes, and novelty and sculpted cakes.
In addition, Cake Masters has been working with the amazing folks at Warner Bros. and will be offering cake and figurine tutorials based on some of their most loved and cherished characters! The artists can't wait to share them with you...like this fabulous Batmobile cake created by Trina Thomson:
We hope you'll come visit us at Cake Masters...we have just launched our first sugar flower video covering the beautiful and elegant Gardenia flower, including super cute buds and dark, glossy leaves. Some of our other favorite Petalsweet flowers have already been filmed and are currently being edited to add to the list of courses in the near future!
Our many thanks for your ongoing support...we see many of you on our Petalsweet Cakes facebook page and so appreciate the time you take to stop by to say hello!
