Do Ads bother you? I know, I apologize.

You see, my site is FREE for you but it's NOT FREE for me.

I have to pay for every single thing on this blog, right from hosting, or video editing tools to these little share buttons you see above. The better a user experience I want to give you, the more my blog expenses go up.

These ads help me pay those bills and makes it possible for me to share my recipe with you for free. It also enables me to use blogging as a job so I can use the earning to provide for my family.

While I know these aren't always appreciated, these are necessary to make this a win: win situation for both you and me.

I truly appreciate your support and understanding

Thank you so much

    hi..
    I follow the exact same way. Bu t i always feel that with the plastic and tape on top, the horizontal level may get imbalanced. Don’t you think so? How do ensure that it doesn’t happen?

    Thanks

    Hi Veena.
    I have watched lots of your blogs and vids. It amazes me how sharp you get your edges with both fondant, and buttercream. I have tried, well I’ve lost count, several times to get my fondant not to tear or crack. I’ve used so many different brands. As yet, have not found a REALY good stretchy fondant that doesn’t tear!! Please help! What do you use?
    Kind regards josine

      Hi Josine. As you can see in the video. I do a simple yet sure process. I do hope it helps you. I have tired Satin Ice, my homemade fondant as well as some local brands here they all work with this method. Majority of my cakes are now Satin Ice…. Thanks.
