Wilton 2109-859 50-Piece Tool and Caddy Decorating Set Review

Wilton 2109-859 50-Piece Tool and Caddy Decorating Set
Average Reviews:

I love to bake. In fact, I baked my own wedding cake. Last weekend, I baked a wedding cake for a friend getting married in Boston, which was no small feat because I live in Virginia! I baked the cake in VA and drove it up, and iced it once I got there. I had to do all the smooth coat and all the detail work right at the reception hall, with people watching. I used all my wilton bags and tips to do the job, but had nothing 'nice' to carry them all in (which would have looked very professional in front of an eagerly awaiting reception hall). After seeing one of these decorator's toolboxes, I rushed to Amazon to add it to my wishlist.
2 reasons it didn't score a 5: First of all, the nice plastic molds for storing the tips do not accept any larger Wilton decorating tips like #789, or any of the longer ones such as #1L. Second of all, the lids to the toolboxes are annoying shades of pastel plastic... It looks like you are carrying around a makeup kit for Malibou Barbie.
Other than that, this is a must-have if you need to travel and decorate.

A smart and sneaky tool for professional cake decorators and novices alike, this 12-piece press set makes it easy to create dazzling designs on cupcakes, tiered cakes, sheet cakes, cheesecakes, and more. The sturdy, stencil-like plastic pieces come in the following shapes: fleur-de-lis; double heart; medallion; open heart; closed scroll; heart; large, medium and small C-scrolls; crest; double scroll; and vine. To use, simply select the desired shape and press it gently into the surface of a base-iced cake. The press leaves a visible outline in the frosting, which can then be traced over with piping gel to achieve deceptively effortless designs in a variety of seemingly complicated and intricate shapes. Also great for pressing patterns into soft cookie dough or fondant, the 12-piece cake-decorating press set measures approximately 5-1/2 by 9-2/5 by 1-2/5 inches.

Wilton 2104-12 Icing Sculptor Set with Handle and 64 Design Blades Review

I love this product. It makes it very easy to decorate the sides of my cakes so they look fabulous. I am not the most creative person- and my cakes often show it- not anymore! My only complaint, although minor, is that you have to add a fairly thick layer of thinner consistency icing for the tool to work easily. Otherwise it pulls the edges right out of the holder. Once I discovered this trick I was very pleased!

Create beautiful homemade cakes just like a professional with this simple-to-use icing sculptor set. Great for birthdays, anniversaries, showers, weddings, and other special or everyday occasions, the set includes a sculptor handle and 64 design blades in 14 different sculpting edges, which can be interchanged to create a variety of interesting patterns and customized effects.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Just a note, you get this book free when you sign up to take the Wilton Cake Class Course 1 (at least you do at Michael's Arts & Crafts where I took mine)
The book is easy to understand, pictures are literally step by step and include instruction such as "offhand," meaning it will tell you that something should resemble an ice cream cone or look like a behive, to swirl here, or lightly brush here, sweeping motion, etc. I found it very refreshing not to all be spoken in terms that only people who attended culinary school would understand. It also shows you the pictures of suggested supplies you will need in the beginning of the book so your not running back to the store each time you start a new segment.
I would suggest just taking the class because on top of getting the book free, you do get a lot more tips and advice from the instructor that you can jot down in the ample space imbetween pictures and notes in the book. But if you too busy or there isn't a class scheduled near you, this book would certainly suffice in helping you get started!

Wilton 301-910 Romantic Castle Cake Set Review

Wilton 301-910 Romantic Castle Cake Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
About a month ago, my daughter said she'd like Daddy to make her a castle cake for her third birthday. I found this kit online, and thought it looked easy enough. How hard could a "kit cake" be to make?
Once I got into this project, I quickly realized that to make this cake "right", it would be no quick endeavor! We planned ahead. Two days before the party, we started baking cakes and making flowers (easy enough to do that the soon to be birthday girl even helped--fun like Playdo). We froze the cakes.
The day before the party, I iced the (still frozen) cakes and put the glitter on all of the areas it needed to be on (roof-tops, around windows, etc...) For a dad, this is doable, but certainly not easy (I was up until 3 am working on this--of course, I didn't start until very late as I returned home from work late).
The party was in the evening, so I had time the day of to assemble and finish the cake. First, I did rolled fondant on the top only of the base cake, and on the entire second (smaller) cake. Instead of using "melted candy" as the instructions suggest, I used a glue gun to attach some sticks to the towers to help keep them upright. The glue stuck fine, but the wieght of the roof-tops made a couple of the towers unstable at times. After putting on the towers, I used Valentine's day M&M's (red, pink, and White) as "rocks" for the walls of the base cake.
This cake is no easy project for a dad with limited cake baking know-how, and it is also very time consuming to make it right. When my newly-turned 3 year old little princess put her arms around me and said, "Dad, I'm really proud of you. You did a good job on my castle cake." it was ALL WORTH IT!

I purchased all three of the Wilton Lesson plans that correspond to the three courses taught by different teachers using the Wilton courses. In my opinion, as an educator, they are excellent plans. I intend to instruct myself using these plans. The books will be kept for future reference. Great price - $4.99 ea.

Wilton Big Bling Ring Review

Wilton Big Bling Ring
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was looking for something like this to use as a paper weight for my desk. I saw the price and assumed that the ring would be made out of thick plastic and the quality didn't look bad. I just received the item a few days ago and was very disappointed. The quality is not good at all. It is made out of cheap plastic and looks like something you could buy from the dollar store. There were even places where the plastic was chipping off. I would not recommend this product unless the price is greatly reduced.

I wanted to use these cutters to make fondant snowflakes for a wedding cake. The snowflake cutters themselves are nice but the impression mats were not nearly deep enough to see. I ended up piping buttercream frosting on top to give them more depth.
