I am from Malaysia. I just love your creations. Thank you for the how-to videos. They are really helpful. The Q&A on fondant and gumpaste is very good.
Yuha- I am so happy that the fondant Q and A was something that you liked, I hope it helped answer your questions, and I am so happy to have people from Malaysia like yourself stop in to visit my blog. I love hearing from you!!
Connie-That is the best compliment a person could receive, thank you! I wish you the best in your own little sugar ventures.
Hi Donna, My name is Mary, I am from Northern Ireland and would like to compliment you on the beautiful fondant creations. I have fallen in love with them.” I bake quite a lot, but have never tried fondant figures and I was looking for some tips on How to make fondant Christmas Decorations when I discovered your “Your How To” demonstrations.They are excellent. You have inspired me to create some figures. I do so wish you had a tutorial video or dvd ready for release. Keep up the amazing work, perhaps you could do a demonstration on how to create “Rudolph”
Hi Donna,
I am from France and i just want to tell you i love so much your creations and figures.
I ‘m gonna use your demonstrations for my own cakes and creations.
Thanks again.
Hola Donna! I live in Fuerteventura one of the Canary Islands and make and decorate cakes as a hobby/job. I love your work and find it inspirational. I need a lot of that as the only cake decorating supplies available here is icing sugar! I have managed to bring some stuff over from the UK when I visit family. But, for the most part I now make everything from scratch. Only when you try the wonderful world of cake decorating for yourself do you really appreciate all the time, effort and skill that goes into it, not forgetting the artistic flair, which you have more than your fair share of! Thanks for allowing us to look and learn from your unique talent.
Hi Donna!
I have recently moved from Ohio to Alaska-the wonderful Kenai Peninsula! I have had a small cake clientle and am planning on starting a cake business where I now live. I appreciate your website and would welcome any tips you have on starting a new cake business! I look very forward to viewing your new website and learning more from you. Also, maybe your “boys” would sometime like to come and visit Alaska and do some Real Fishing! Look us up!

Also Donna,
So you make all your fondant from scratch or do you use commercial fondant? My first wedding cake using fondant, I did it from scratch, having no experience with making it from scratch, it was very interresting, but I pulled it off, and it turned out great!

Hi Donna!
Your figures are wonderful! I am new to cake making so I am trying to soak up as much as possible:) what do you use to paint on your figures. like the rosy cheeks or even the detail. I have made some gumpaste flowers and used the dusting powder for detail but I just thought I would ask since yours look so great! thank you so much for all you do!
hi Donna, i live in the republic of ireland, and i am wondering if you know anything about choco pan its a fondant i think, i ned to decorate a wedding cake next month.
many thanks
pam
Choco pan, is really not much different than regular Fondant. It is made with chocolate and has a great chocolate flavor. You can roll the chocopan very thin and still cover a cake with it, in addition it makes beautiful swags on cakes. I think it would be fantastic for a wedding cake. I wish you the best with your cake!!
Tkank you for your quick answer. I am from Malta and i just found out you website and videos. Well done you are really great. Keep it up and thank you.
Hello. Your work is wonderful! I am new to decorating and am trying to teach myself. Your site is soooo helpful. I need to make cupcakes for a party and was wondering how you made the flower cupcakes? Did you pipe the flowers with buttercream, or did you use fondant or royal icing? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you, Terry
You are amazing! and being self taught! You give me hope, lol. Your work is so lovely. I can only hope to be half as good as you.
I got into cake decorating late and am so thirsty about learning all I can. Thank you for your kindness in sharing your talents and how-to’s for those of us who cannot afford the rest.
Im still a teenager, and I started cake decorating when I was 13. Its kind of a hobby at the moment, but hopefull will turn into a bussiness later on. I am doing an adult friends birthday cake next month. I am so far, self taught too. I just thought I would say your designs are amazing.
