Cake Decorations

Most of cake bakers nowadays are very creative.  I really admire those who got their talents to make beautiful cake decorations, frosting and fondant creations. These two methods of wrapping the cake into something personalize one, makes every celebrant happy and contented.
So, do you know something about making frosting or even fondant making? Many websites are publishing different kinds of frosting, I tried some of them. It's important to know that not all websites are giving the exact measure of ingredients to use, sometimes it is too sweet, so you'll need to less the sugar. It's important also to taste it before you proceed in adding more sugar, remember it's hard to get the sugar back once you mixed it. In making buttercream frosting for example,  you will need some milk if it is too thick, then gradually add the sifted powder sugar, until you meet the right consistency. In other words,  if you are not satisfied with the given amount in recipes you are taking, you do the adjustments, to get what you want. To all cake decorators around the globe, MORE POWER to all of you. Is this helpful?
