Even for your first cake design it looks good

My grandma has a great recipe for icing, it doesn't have exact measurements, you just keep adding little a little bit at a time until the taste and texture is what you like.
Powdered sugar (usally about half a bag)
About 2-3 tablespoons of butter/margarine (I melt it for mixing ease)
1+ teaspoons of vanilla extract
And the secret ingredient is room temp coffee
Usually icing calls for milk, but the coffe cuts the sweetness of all that powdered sugar. I hate the taste of coffee, but this is hands down my favorite icing in the world. It's not creamy or fluffy, doesn't have that nice whipped texture, but it works. It's soft when you mix it, but will harden so make it and use it right then and there, hard to remix if you let it sit too long (make sure your cake is fully cooled before preparing the icing). It pairs well with angel food cake, and banana cake.

Can you please give an update with your ICL surgery? I am having mine done this summer finally and I’m so scared! Can you wear coloured contact lenses after ICL? Love your videos x

Pretty! I noticed you got cake decorating tools but only used the smoother and not the spatula to evenly distribute the frosting before smoothing with the smoother.

WHY didn't you just get a round cake?
