Keep reading! From: Amanda's Kitchen Date: Wednesday, 10:34am Dear Fellow Cake Decorator, IMAGINE... The big day finally arrives. Your mother’s 65th surprise birthday party. She has no idea you’ve been learning all sorts of new cake decorating techniques. Wow – the look on her face when she sees her own portrait created on a birthday cake (and I don’t mean using a photograph!). How special is that? IMAGINE... All your friends cheer as you bring in the cake! They all want to know, “Where did you get the idea? It’s so clever...it looks just like a real, cuddly stuffed moose! Amazing!” IMAGINE... The thrill of landing your first paid cake decorating job. Yikes!! Now what do you do? You want the cake to be perfect – after all it’s for the big party of your best friend’s business associates ... but what if something goes wrong?! You can do all this and more after you... Read my personal story behind each cake ... where I found the inspiration, who I made it for, what problems came up and how I solved them. My dream of sharing all my years of experience - the tips & tricks, and fun, creative cake decorating ideas to amaze your friends and clients - is coming true at last! I grew up watching my mother bake and decorate cakes – and of course – becoming “mommy’s little helper”. Not only that, she turned her hobby into a successful business when I was around 8. I’ve been following in her footsteps for years – decorating my own cakes since I could master the piping bag. I never worry about making “mistakes” because she taught me how to change so-called disasters into creative opportunities. And I’d like to help you do the same. I’m the ‘go-to’ cake decorating expert my friends, family and acquaintances call on to solve their decorating challenges. They know I can give them the advice they need to get through any problem they’re facing. I am the Blue Ribbon Winner for Best Fair Themed Cake for our Local Country Fair.  Now I’d like to help YOU take your skills and business to the next level. Whether you’re selling cakes full time, part-time or giving them away to your family and friends ... I’ve got fun, creative, stress-free ideas to really take your cake decorating to a new level of 'WOW' Factor! In other words, you have your own personal tutor, right by your side, to walk you through the steps of decorating with a sneak peak into the art of making cakes from start to finish. Beginning, middle and final cake photos make each step crystal clear. You’ll learn how I turned my own cake decorating challenges and blunders into works of art. And how you can do the same. Your confidence will soar as your skills improve and sales increase, while adding new ideas to your cake decorating portfolio. Even more important – you’ll be inspired to come up with your own creative cake ideas for your clients, friends and family. How can I deliver all this to you? Let me explain With my own cake portfolio bulging at the seams, and regularly getting “HELP! I’m STUCK” calls from friends for cake decorating fix-it solutions, I decided to put all my years of knowledge and experience into a series of eBooks. The first one is HOT OF THE PRESS and I want to get that out to you as soon as possible. "Amanda's Fun Cake Decorating Ideas - Volume 1" is an eBook you can download to your computer for instant access to a treasure trove of new, creative ideas for your cake decorating business or hobby. Here’s What’ll Happen... You’ll soon be making cakes that touch people’s hearts, make them laugh and dazzle them with your skills. You’ll learn time saving tips so you can work faster and more efficiently – pulling in more orders than ever before. You'll be inspired by cakes like my "Bassinette Cake" that travelled down all the halls of the birthing unit of my local hospital. I made this cake for the birth of my best-friend's baby girl. The nurses loved it so much that they insisted on carrying it through all the halls, to all the nurses stations and to all of the new and expectant mothers to show it off before we cut it open to celebrate Shaina's birth. My creative, playful, care-free approach will free up that perfectionist side of you to be more experimental. You’ll have a lot more fun trying out new techniques and ideas. When your results truly come from your heart, your friends and clients will feel it. Free word-of-mouth advertising will spread like wildfire as your very satisfied customers talk up your business for you. Whether you’ve been a cake decorating pro for years or are just beginning this adventure, you’ll be inspired with new ideas. And really, don’t you find that you learn something new from every teacher’s different twist to solving problems? How Can I Make These Claims? This is what Some of my clients had to say about my cakes   We thought the cake looked great and that Amanda had done a wonderful job of re-inventing a cake that I had showed her from a magazine into a true new original. The colours she used in the icing flowers matched my bouquet perfectly! Our day was just amazing - we couldn’t have asked for a better location or nicer weather, and it was so special to be surrounded by all our closest friends and family. On the day and from photos, lots of people commented on how lovely the cake looked and also how great it tasted – Jarrod loved the icing the best!!! Amanda seems very knowledgeable about cake making and decorating and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to those who wish to learn more about making and decorating cakes! Thanks Amanda for contributing to our special day - it truly was the most amazing day of our lives!!! Rebecca& Jarrod Bride & Groom New Zealand     My step-daughter, Rebecca, chose a very fancy cake for her wedding day. When she showed me the photo of what she wanted I thought it looked like a very difficult cake to make! However Amanda did an awesome job, she took Rebecca’s example and made a new original, the cake was exquisite. Amanda, without a doubt, is a gifted cake decorator, happy and enthusiastic to take on the challenge of making and decorating a complicated cake. The cake fulfilled my stepdaughter's wedding cake dreams. And yes I had to eat one of the gorgeous icing flowers, but they were snapped up very quickly, as they were absolutely delicious! (As was the cake itself). I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Amanda to help show you how to make your own wonderful cakes! You could only be delighted." Carolyn, Step Mother of the Bride New Zealand.       Dear Amanda, I had read many positive things about Marshmallow fondant in many cake decorating publications. Today I was inspired to try and make it, after reading the recipe for it in your wedding cake tutorial. It really is as great as everyone says it is. I wish I had discovered it sooner. It tastes so much better than store bought fondant icing and only took me about 10 minutes to make. A great tasting fondant at an economic price - what more could you want! I'm sure no one will be pulling off "that rubbery icing" from my cakes anymore, now that I have MMF (Marshmallow Fondant) in my life.

You know, with over 1,000,000 online cake decorating websites, it can get pretty confusing! I’d just like to let you know this one is 100% Hype-Free. I want to share my adventures in the world of cake decorating with you ... so you can learn from my mistakes and be inspired in the process. I love decorating cakes. I love coming up with unique, unusual, “just-right” cakes for that special person or occasion. You will easily duplicate my fun ideas to get you started. But, in truth, I hope they’ll act as a “spring board” to kick off your own creative ideas. Except for a few of the earlier cakes, most of the 20 cakes have detailed, step-by-step photos and text leading you through the creation process. This in itself is invaluable! It’s not just one “perfect cake” photograph you’ll see – inspiring you – but maybe equally - intimidating you. No, I reveal each step clearly with text and photos. I didn’t “edit out the bloopers” either. I want you to see how to creatively figure out how to “fix” problems as they arise. I guess being a perfectionist has its plus side – but it can also be crippling, can’t it? I encourage you to jump on in! Don’t worry so much about creating “the perfect cake.” For me, baking and decorating cakes is all about the “L” word. (Of course, the money’s nice too!) But it’s showing the people close to you that you care about them, you love them – this flows out to your clients who are aiming to do that for the people they love. The little mishaps and “mistakes” are so often only seen by you. People want to “ooh” and “aah” over the cake – then can’t wait to dig in. I surely want to create the very best cake I can too. But pouring a lot more love and a lot less stress into your cakes will make everyone who tastes them feel so much happier. Don’t you find that true? I guarantee that once you take a look at these charming cakes you’ll want to get out your mixing bowl immediately! This will be one cake decorating ebook you’ll USE over and over again. The playful spirit of my cakes will spark your imagination. You’ll be thinking, “Who can I make this one for?  Your best friend just had a baby ... Shaina’s Bassinet Cake will have everyone gasping at your cake decorating skills. Lucia’s Fancy Lady Cake will be perfect for your sister’s birthday. The cheerful smile on the black and white Doon Cat Cake will have your cat-loving clients calling you back for more. Signing up for "Amanda's Fun Cake Decorating Ideas - Volume 1" gives you the opportunity to send in feedback, ask questions, and swap ideas. I’ll guide you into tapping your own creative cake decorating ideas and expression ... turning any “mistakes” into works of art.
