wedding fever

I've decided to take the plunge and start doing wedding fairs!! So let's get those dummies decorated!! 1 down 3 or 4 more to do before September. It's quite a daunting task being pitted up against other local cake makes. Each hoping that there wears will entice potential customers to them over there competitors. I've now started to scour wedding articles and trends to see what in vogue for this autumn and next year. Also there is the decision of presentation, do I go for clean an crisp or shabby chic? Oh the decisions!
The current trend is for all these bright colour and contrasting colour like green and purple?? Not sure how many of Bolton's potential brides are going for these very bold and none traditional colours on there wedding cakes? Do I take a risk or do I stick with more traditional colours and styles? Might have to do a Facebook poll to see what people really think and want.
Also I've put my name down for an ABC accredited course in sugarcraft. Hoping to hone my royal icing techniques. Most people prefer icing/ fondant covered cakes to the traditional Royal Iced cakes. As a consequence I don't get to practice this side of cake decoration that much. I really hope I can get on this highly sort after course. I should find out at the end of August. (Fingers crossed)
I've finally designed a unique and specific logo that I've now sent off to a lovely little company to help bring my ideas to fruition. Ooh I can't wait to see the final product. :)
Ah well best get back to doing some real work and begin my referring between my 2 delightful children (lol!)
