I've always been a fan of the 'fake it till you make it' school of thought. It's how I've progressed in my business. Every new cake teaches me something, even if it's the same design I've done before. I learn how to streamline processes, and how to improve the final product. When someone shows me a design and says, can you do this, I always say yes even if I can't, and worry about the how of it during the time between actually securing the order, and producing it. Every single wedding cake I've done so far has been worked on this principal.

Luckily for me I've managed to make it every time so far. haha
