Popular sugarcraft author Lindy Smith cuts ribbon for German cake decorating business

17th December 2013 by Lindy Smith

To some I am a ‘name’ in cake decorating, to others I am a cake  ‘celebrity’  but to me, I am someone who adores what I do, educating and inspiring others.  My books are extremely popular and have been translated into many languages, which is wonderful and means that  I sometimes get asked to do more than just teach classes and demonstrate sugarcraft techniques.

My recent teaching trip to Germany was one such occasion. I was asked to cut a ribbon to open a new cake decorating shop and school – Torten Boutique. Now you may think that cutting a ribbon is a simple task, you take a pair of scissors and cleanly cut a ribbon in two – this was not to be the case in Langenfeld on November 30th 2013!!

cutting the ribbon take one
Scissors in position, time for the countdown…oh the anticipation
ribbon cutting - needed a helping hand
Slight technical hitch!! Note to self: Next time make sure the scissors are sharp and ribbon tight
All that effort just to cut a ribbon!!
I never knew cutting a ribbon required so much effort – what a laugh!!

I had a wonderful time at Torten Boutique and they have asked me back to teach a two day wonky class next Autumn – I wonder if I’ll be asked to do something a little different  next time too?

Happy baking and decorating

Lindy
