Happy 8th Birthday Racing Track

Hi all that share the love of cake decorating!
Im fairly new 'green' to this field and have only experimented with the past 3 birthday cakes for my boy! I have not had any professional experience but ppl keep telling me cos the standard keeps getting better & better every year! ...that I should seriously think about doing a course or starting a small business!

Now Im doing a small business course with still not real expertise in the decorating cakes field but thinking that THAT is a direction I'd like to head in.

I LOVE sitting & 'playing' with icing & experimenting with what can be done! It blows my mind the endless things that can be achieved with & through this medium!

Im still in awe of every cake out there that I see! And can appreciate the time, efforts, artistry & craftsmanship that goes into this.

I would be grateful for ANY feed back & any helpful hints!

I don't know whether my standard comes up to scratch but I'd like to think I can improve enough to sell something unique if I get more experience & really put mind to it! :)

I've only ever made 3 cakes of this type! And there's been a whole year in between each! haha Be gentle!! Hehehe!

Thank you :)
Jo O

P.S.
This is my boys 8th birthday taken March 08! It's a figure 8 racing track complete with faux bridge & go-karts & some of my boys favourite vid game characters.
Naruto on chequered flag, Sonic the Hedgehog in the Ferrarri concept go-kart, Crash Bandicoot in the blue Dodge Viper go-kart & the BIRTHDAY BOY himself in a Pixar 'Cars' Wingo go-kart!

GO for It!

Your cake is awesome and you should go for it...your cake biz I mean! I just started mine and it is awesome. Even though I don't always think I'm super awesome, people cannot seem to get enough. Check out my website www.jenny-cakes.com for ideas and go for it yourself. I"m so glad I did (I just started in Novemeber), and your cakes are super cool so you should do it too (I'm just glad your in Melbourne and not in Chicago!). Good luck!
