How do you receive inspiration?

‘Where do you receive your inspiration for all this ?’ was among the first comments I received on my blog.

I’d like to say I would have lost this course if I didn’t take it. It’s very useful to use royal icing than before in decoration. The course was professionally conducted and the venue was nice. The trainer (she) is very excellent when she teaches us she is professional. My next course - to make flowers. I would like to be included on the E-Newsletter. - Ibtihaj

I am now able to pipe decorations. My confidence has increased a lot. I will now be able to decorate cakes and create designs. The environment was a bit too comfortable. I was scared to make a mess! The lessons were very organized and actually encouraged me to try things. I would like to be included on the E-Newsletter. -Nneoma

I know how to decorate a house-made cake. I believe that I learnt the basic know-how. I did, so I can continue building on it. The course was professionally conducted. The venue was comfortable & quiet enough to relax and concentrate. The trainer explains the course clearly and in a friendly way. She understands your level and capacity. If I can find time, don’t know how soon, I also would like to do Royal Icing course. -Pervin

I learned a lot. The evidence are on pictures. I learned various techniques and procedures and how to perfect them. The course was extremely useful, most in the baking and decoration of my baby’s 1st year birthday cake. The class was very professionally conducted and in a friendly way; the venue comfortable and conducive for learning. Will be in constant communication with the trainer. Keep up the good work. Thumbs up.

We were so surprised and pleased to see the cake that Margaret made for our wedding reception in September of 2009. It was a so beautiful that we almost didn’t want to eat it! But it also tasted great as well and everyone at the party commented on how good it was and how great it looked. - Chris and Kathryn

Finally the day had arrived, the day of the Bazaar; and finally the cake arrived. I thought it was huge, wonderful and looked very good.
What to do with it? to raffle it to guess the weight? That presented a problem: no scales, ok we will do a raflle, and we did.
Among the many visitors was a lady in a wheelchair, a happy woman who was recovering in a home from surgery across from the church. Her home was somewhere in the center of Holland. What were the odds of her winning a cake and besides what would she do with it, she wondered but she bought her ticket anyway to help support the bazaar for the less fortunate. When the time came to draw the raffle ticket, people were excited and the room became quiet, the lady in the wheelchair had by now left the church since she was tired. Great was her surprise when the cake was brought over to her! To keep it all to herself was out of the question but she got a luminous idea: she would treat all the patients and the staff in the home to cake. To her it was the end of a long tiring but wonderful day. It is wonderful to receive but it is far better to give..

Each year at the Bazaar we are used to a simple round cake, it was a wonderful surprise to see your beautiful “Lady Bug” cake complete with edible feelers, delivered on the day of the Bazaar. The lucky winner happens to be a resident of a nearby home care facility and she said she would proudly share it with her fellow residents. Thank you very much for your creativity and generosity.
