I am a new subscriber and love your tutorials and have watched several of them. I just find it amazing what you can do with fondant and cake decorating. The elephant on this cake was adorable and you made it seem so easy. I think that a tail on this elephant would have looked cute too. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful tips and details. I just love your videos!!!

LOL Thank you!! With cake decorating, you'll find your "thing". Some people love 3D figures, some love making flowers. Both of those are my nightmare LOL So I love doing fondant work. Once you find your thing, you can get really good at it and it will become your signature!

Here's one way I wrap up cakes: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWeps7ttqpjWntY.html I don't always tape the lids to the sides, sometimes I just wrap the plastic over the cake without the lids. Something like this design doesn't require the extra protection of the lids!

Beautiful cake 🤩 I love the way you teach, It’s so easy to understand. Thank you

You know what's crazy? I always tell people it's corn starch and I realized I never said that in this video! I prefer to use corn starch over powdered sugar because the sugar gets sticky as you work with it. Try corn starch and see how you like it!
