V and I took a cake decorating class at the Cake Boss bakery. Brush embroidery is actually easier than I'd realized--I'm really happy with how my cake came out.
It was a Groupon, so we paid about half the normal fees. I felt a little bad--everyone else there was clearly totally psyched to be at Carlo's Bake Shop, and I was just excited to learn brush embroidery. But we had a really good time. Also, that place is unreal. We weren't at the Hoboken location--we were at the actual bakery in Jersey City that supplies all the local branches. They had walk in ovens. They had stand mixers that look exactly like normal stand mixers if the normal stand mixers were as tall as me. They had trash can sized tubs of fondant on wheels. They can make 80,000 cupcakes in one shift, and they have three shifts. Oy. It was very impressive.
