I took some Wilton classes in the late 90s and really enjoyed learning how to decorate cakes. I once inquired at a local cake shop about jobs and they said I needed an art degree. Their cakes are like 3-D sculptures. Well, I’m sure not all places have the same requirements. Just wondering if entry-level cake decorating jobs are available for those with no professional experience. Also, how is the pay?

Hi everyone, I’m thinking of starting a cake decorating business and want input from people who have started a cake decorating business. How did you get business? How much did you charge for each cake? Did you specialize in a type of cake?

*Please answer only if you have started a cake decorating business. Thanks!
Do you own a cake decorating store? Or are you just guessing. Once again, I need answer from people who have actually experience first hand.

I’m teaching myself cake decorating and this is my first cake.

I want a smoother look and the spatula just can’t do it. Any tips or ideas?

THANKS GUYS!
I do have a large metal spatula.
