Am I good enough (cake related)

Batfink, 26 June, 2008 at 15:35 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 17

I've been making cakes for fun for a couple of years now and want to make a business out of it, but although I think I'm good enough I'm worried I might be a bit delusional! Can I have opinions please? (This is in no way an advert for business BTW!)

    They're really good, I don't think you'd have any problems.

    I'm not cake expert, but I think yours are fantastic. I'd love to be able to do something like that.

    Aww, thanks for all the lovely comments, I'm so desperate to get on and start up, but I'm just struggling in feeling confident enough to take on actual paying orders. I think asking all of you has really helped, so thank you very much.

    I don't do gluten free yet, I've never been asked for one before but I will be perfecting recipes for one of those and others while I'm waiting for my kitchen to be extended and finished (there's no way I'd want to work from there atm!) Which should be in a couple of months. So by Christmas I should be on my way <petrified icon>!

    Hey Jules - If Batfink can't do a pirate cake for you, Waitrose have got one on their Entertaining website which you can order online and have delivered.

    I'm on the Hants/Wilts border, but I can't do it anyway, I need to get my kitchen certified, as much as I'd looove to!

    Thanks again for all the lovely comments, I think I've now probably got enough confidence to get on and make a go of it!

    They're fantastic! Did you teach yourself? I did a cake decorating and sugarcraft course last year and don't think i'll ever be that good. You can def charge people, i'd certainly pay!

    I think they're brilliant! So many character cakes are a bit pants - but the detail on some of these is great.

    LOVE the wee elephant - its SOOOOO sweet! (and thats coming from a very non-girly girl!)
