For mutual last week I thought it would be a fun idea to teach my girls to decorate cakes. So 8 batches of icing, 9 cakes, 15 icing bags, and 13 hours later I ended up with this:

And this:

And this:

Oh yeah...and a HUGE mess:

(The red coloring paste still has not come off my counter)
But the outcome.....





....Was a success!

How fun! Looks like the girls had a blast...that definately makes the mess worthwhile. I really miss the young women. They are lucky to have a leader like you who isn't afraid to dive in and get dirty! Love ya!
They did such a great job! Wow! They must have had a great teacher ;)
Try Mr. Clean Magic Eraser to get the stuff off your counter.
Hope you are feeling better and that you got a good nights sleep!

That's so great! THAT is why I am not in YW's. I haven't got a creative bone in my entire body! Thank goodness for the wonderful leaders that my girls have. They recently did the same (cake decorating) and last week they learned to sew pillows. Two things I could have never taught them. Poor kids...
Nice work! Wish I could've come. I would try Clorox Bleach "Clean-Up" spray -- it's potent and stinky but it usually works to get stains out of our countertops.
What a good leader!I bet they had a blast.
Next time make the lazy bums bake their own cakes. Enabler!
Those were so cute! I could have never done something like that! Your abilities never cease to amaze me though. I'm still hoping for my private lesson soon too! :)
So...when are you going to hold a cake decorating night for your FRIENDS??????
Very cute....the girls did a great job and you are so nice to do that for them!

What a great leader you are - and what a lot of work!!! How fun!
Adorable. When do you want to come to our ward and teach the girls? ;)
Better yet, when do you want to come to my house and teach me?
This looks like it was such a success! You are perfect for that calling and I am sure that they LOVE you! What a great idea!
"Fantastic" down the cleaning isle will get just about anything off. (Especially those powdered Crystal Light drinks that stain so well) Just spray and let it sit for 30 seconds or so, and it's gone. Beautiful cakes!
