Cake

Well the last weekend i spent it making cake. I wish cake was not so hard to work with. When i made the nascar car it came out cute but a little more cartoonie than i would have liked. Everyone thinks its just cake. But cake is soft moist and is not that easy to work with. If it were that easy than everyone would make cakes and no one would pay the kinda of money they do for a cake. But it seems that when people ask you to make a cake for them and you tell them what it will cost they say what the heck i can go to costco and get a cake for 14.99. No one can make that kinda of cake for that price. You cant even buy the supplies for that. Costco gets everything real cheap. Then you get a sheet cake. Not a cake that is carved or shaped or even stacked. But then i see people go into a cake shop and have to no problem paying 300 dollars for a cake for there childs first birthday. I mean luckly i dont have experiance with this because i dont make cakes for sale but this is just an observation of what people do. Now that i am in the cake shop i see all kinds of things that just amaze me. Like people are getting married on saturday and they come in on friday and want a wedding cake. They just think it you take a cake out of the freezer and wham in five minutes you have a cake.
