Piping Practice for Exam

Here is another section of our exam coming up next Thursday...

We have to decorate the rim of a cake plate, and write the words "Herzlichen Gluckwunsch."

Not sure what I'm talking out?

Check out my practice piece...


We will be graded on the thickness of the chocolate, our consistency, our penmanship, and so on.

There are a few places where I made some errors... For example, on the L in "Herzlichen," and my loops in the rim are not all completely the same.  In the end, its just doing this over and over and over again that makes you better, but I am pretty happy about where I'm at so far.

    It's a good exercise, IMHO, at the starting »H« it's looking better with a bigger Seriphe on the starting point

  5. Beautiful rim! Letters... it's all about finding your style, I've found, which takes a good deal of playing about.
