Writing on a Cake

is not my forte. My hands always shake when I write words on a cake. I think I have to practice more. I was busy yesterday that I came only here for half an hour before sleeping. I was so tired. It was my productive day again offline. Now I am waiting for the cake to be collected. It is a birthday cake for the mother of a friend. I have to reduce the sweetness of the icing as ordered. My hubby was my ‚ guinea pig‘. I forgot to tell him that there was espresso powder in the icing. He doesn’t like coffee. Well, he has not noticed, I suppose. Anyway, the weather is only 8C this Sunday and the sun is on and off. Enjoy your weekend. I will tend to my notifications now. Thank you for reading.

Tomorrow is my wedding anniversary and here we can order cake online but unable to write on it. So I too little worried because I too can't able to write on it because my hands too will shake.

Happy wedding anniversary to you and your wife. I think it is okay if you can’t write on a cake that you have ordered. Maybe you can write a poem for your wife in a card. Thank you for commenting @sunilparthan.

@thelme55 I am not a good writer actually and I don't know how it will be if I write a poem

@sunilparthan Just write how you feel for your wife in a poem. I am sure she will love it.

It looks good to me. I cannot write on cakes, but I seldom try. The cake sounds yummy.

Thank you @Hannihar. Yes, it was delicious as what they told me who have eaten the cake.

I imagine writing is difficult on a cake. I print. Still difficult.

I still need practice on writing on the cake. I have not tried printing for a cake decoration. I should try that. Thank you @DianneN.

Not only in the icing but also in the cake together with vanilla flavour @DocAndersen. It really tastes good if you like coffee. Thank you.

When I started my cake shop some twelve years back I could not write on the cake as I was not from the field but now with experience I can write quite well but not as fluent as some people working in the factory.

You wrote that? I'm impressed. I'm afraid I'd get mine done by a store, both the cake and the decoration!!

@thelme55 I'd give him more coffee. Maybe he'll have the body of Bruce Jenner after all of that exercise. Wait. Never mind.

@TheHorse Oh no! I don’t like Bruce Jenner.. He will vomit the coffee and I have to clean the floor. No way

Really? Why? He can’t jump. Too heavy to jump.

The cake looks lovely. This turned out quite professional! I'm not good at writing on cakes. I usually just buy flowers or letters and put on if I decorate cakes

That turned out better than what I could ever do! I have cheated and printed out a computer message and put it top of parchment paper to stick on a cake , That's funny your husband didn't notice the espresso powder . We will be at 65F (18C) today - that is cold for us!

That is a good idea @much2say. I would like to try that. Thank you for the idea. Yes, it was funny indeed that he didn’t recognise it. Maybe because he was drinking tea at that time when I let him try the icing. 18C is also cold for me. We have 13C today.
