Birthday Cakes

I'm not the best and envisaging cake decorations in my head - there are some cool sites around for ideas and inspiration. I have no cake decorating experience bar my mother's wonderful advice on what she learnt at classes back in the '70's. So one day, I hope to go to classes and learn how to do stuff properly so I don't get myself in such a state trying to execute a nice finish without proper tools!
