Buttercream creations

My mother has always been a famous baker (in my book and many others!) and sells specialty cakes like red velvet and Italian cream from time to time. She's always been interested in taking cake decorating classes. So with my new found love of baking I pushed her into taking a class with me and we've had a blast. Here's a picture of my first creation using buttercream icing. Not completely perfect but I was proud of it and it was delicious if I do say so myself! It's a yellow cake with strawberry preserves as a filling, iced and decorated with buttercream icing. I've even had my first order for a birthday cake which I am working on tonight. Who knows, maybe another business endeavor for me! :)
