Hi Vani, when you wrote Joann, I thought you lived in Johannesburg, South Africa and that’s why I mentioned that website. I looked for “cake decorating supplies in Dallas” in Google and found a couple of results. Why don’t you try that too. http://www.cakecarousel.com/

I live in Canada and the store I go to is Bulk Barn.

It was a great and successful try.h

Oh! great. Thanks for trying it Sweta. I have not tried the orange juice trick.

Thanks Sandhya. It is very time consuming and for the past couple of weeks I have been so busy.

wah the cake looks really beautiful. i am planning to take the course 1 and 2 of wilton class in joann next month or so. can u pls tell me where u got the whole wheat pastry flour? or is it the same flour where we make what we use for making rotis( whole wheat flour) also i want to know where u bought the apple cider vinegar ( or is it the white vinegar) pls let me know.thanks in advance and keep up the good work…will try it out as soon as u reply to me me….

also where do u buy the bottom cardborad for placing the cake and the cover to clost it… pls let me know…

Hi Vani, whole wheat pastry flour is available in the organic aisle of supermarkets here. I don’t know the set up in your place, so check organic/health food stores. It is not the same as the whole wheat flour we use for rotis. WWPF is made from soft wheat whereas the other one is from hard wheat. Similarly apple cider vinegar is available next to the white vinegar itself. You could use white vinegar itself but sometimes I feel the presence of it in the baked goods, sort of after taste, but don’t feel that with apple cider vinegar. If you don’t find it, try adding almond extract or additional vanilla extract. I think this could mask the after taste but it’s just a guess though.

The cardboard, the small silver beads everything was available in the place I took the class. Look for it in cake decorating supply stores. I don’t know if you know about the following store already. I googled and found it.

Thanks Champa, no problem at all.

Simply beautiful cake! Fell in love at first sight. How did you level the frosting so evenly?

Thanks Aashi. I guess I’m getting better or just luck maybe! Have a cup of hot water while frosting and dip the spatula in it every now and then to have a smooth finish.
