And, voila! As you know, I made these two cakes and stacked them on Friday. The cakes were white sheet cake that I cut into circles and layered to make a 2-tier layer cake. The filling, frosting, and decorations were all made of Swiss Meringue Buttercream. As a review from my other blog, there are 3 types of Meringue. This buttercream was based on a Swiss meringue, but we will also be learning about and making a French meringue buttercream and an Italian meringue buttercream.
This cake was not necessarily the most beautiful thing I've ever made, but it was a great exercise in practicing piping. From what I've seen from myself and the other students I'm definitely an efficient, clean, organized, and quick worker, but I'm not necessarily the best overall piper. I'll keep you posted, but I hope you keep checking back in with me!
