I would love to start a home-based cake Decorating/bakery out of my home since I can’t afford a store. I discovered running one is illegal here. But I come across a few people who whip out their cake portfolios and try to sell you their services anyway. I’d like to make birthday cakes for maybe friends of friends and just have them pass the word around that I can bake custom cakes. Would you still do it and try to keep it low-key or just forget your dream?
The reason it’s illegal in GA is because it is food, and that they will then require a seperate building w/ a commercial kitchen, then inspect it. But I have ran across several women in the past who just do this out of their own home anyway.
HMMMM. Odd I know two ladies here in my town that make cakes and run a small cake making business out of their homes (in fact one of those ladies has made my kids B-Day cakes for years) . It is like any other home business (I have my own too). However they have to report their income on their taxes. Otherwise, I don’t know how it can be illegal. Don’t go by what people say, call the BBB and find out what the laws and regulations are. I am sure you can still follow your dream and bake those yummy cakes. obtaining a home business license might solve your problems too. I only had to file for a Tax ID number (for a home business) so I could file at the end of each year and pay my taxes due to the state. Simple as that. Good luck to you.
Home cake decorating business: Illegal in many states, but people seem to still do it? How, why?
What is the best wall paper paste to use?
I want to put up wallpaper in my powder room. Apparently I need to get Wall paper paste. Does anyone know of good wall paper paste I can buy? Also, where would I get this?
You should be fine with any paste you buy.Just make sure it is a heavy duty paste.
Your probably going to want to buy a paste brush to apply it with also.They are not that expensive BTW.
Also when pasting,make sure you cover every single edge of it,book the ends and let it sit for at least 5 minutes before you start hanging.
Also prepare to get covered in paste.
I have been hanging paper for quite a while and I still come home after a day of hanging pasted paper with clothes that are covered in it.
As far as buying it,we buy it directly from the company but you can try Lowes or H/D.If not there your going to have to find a place that sells wallpaper.

How To Decorate Christmas Sugar Cookies
Expand the description and view the text of the steps for this how-to video.
Check out Howcast for other do-it-yourself videos from goluxx and more videos in the Cookies category.

You’ve got the basic recipe. Now learn all the different ways you can decorate those holiday sugar cookies like a pro.
To complete this How-To you will need:
Specialty Decorating items
Sugar cookie dough
Cookie cutters
Cookie sheets
Currants, chopped nuts, or assorted candy
Eggs
Food-coloring liquid and food-coloring gel or paste
A pastry brush or small artist’s brush
Hard candies
A plastic bag
A rolling pin
Plastic squeeze bottles
Royal icing
A butter knife
Rolled fondant
Waxed paper
Cookie tins
A straw
A toothpick
Step 1: Get supplies
Go to a baking-supply or craft store, or shop online for specialty cookie-decorating items.
Step 2: Jazz them up
There are tons of ways to decorate your cookies before baking. After you’ve rolled out the dough and cut the cookies into shapes, press currants, nuts, or candy into them. Or brush them lightly with egg white and dust with colored sanding sugar or sprinkles.
Tip: Dragees, those tiny gold and silver balls that adorn fancy cookies and cakes, are edible. But because they contain real metal, eating them is not advisable.
Step 3: Glaze them
To add colorful shine, glaze cookies before baking by whisking a few drops of liquid food coloring into an egg yolk and spreading it on with a pastry brush or small artist’s brush.
Tip: If you want to hang cookies on your Christmas tree, use a straw to make holes in the tops before baking.
Step 4: Create stained glass
For a stained-glass effect, put hard candies into a plastic bag, crush them with a rolling pin, and then sprinkle them onto unbaked cookies. The candies will melt to look like beautiful stained-glass windows.
Tip: Do a test cookie to make sure the candy doesn’t start to burn before the cookie is fully baked. If that happens, add the candy after the cookies are half-baked.
Step 5: Ice them
For already-baked cookies, try frosting them. Whip up some royal icing, divide it into separate batches, and tint with food-coloring gel or paste. Put the icing in plastic squeeze bottles, pipe it around the outline of each cookie, squeeze some in the center, and spread it evenly over the top with a butter knife or a brush.
Tip: For a marbled effect, spread a light coating of white icing on the cookies. Then pipe on stripes of colored icing and swirl them with a toothpick.
Step 6: Make them glitter
Frosted cookies can be decorated even more by sprinkling them with edible glitter or luster dust.
Step 7: Make rolled fondant
Make or buy rolled fondant. Add food-coloring gel or paste to different batches, roll them out, and use your cookie cutters to make pieces that are identical to your cookies. Brush the bottoms with a tiny bit of water and press them onto the cookies.
Step 8: Store properly
Store your cookies in airtight containers, in single layers separated by waxed paper.

i need to decorate a prom in black and white the theme is an evening of elegance.Any decorating ideas?
I am decorating a huge community center for a formal banquet the colors are black and white with red as our accent color do you have any pictures you can send me on how to set the room up or how to decorate the room and with what i need help?I know teenagers usually do pretty well Decorating at proms.our theme is "An Evening Of Elegance"Help me please pictures usually work best that wiill give me the visual i need.
Sorry, I don’t have any pictures to send, but I can give you the ideas that I’ve used before:) I always think that helium ballooons make a place look "special". Use your black & white ballons and attach them to opposite colors of the curling ribbon, and let alot of it hang down and curl it. Attach them to the tables around your center pieces. Candles & flowers are both great, as centerpieces, and if you can put them on top of mirrors on the tables, it looks fantastic, with the candle light reflecting. You could pick up your red color in just a single red rose. I would use white table coverings. I don’t know what your budget is, but if it limited, use black and white (and maybe some red) crepe paper and twist it from a center point in the ceiling, and drape it to the corners and centered places on the walls. Let some of your balloons free float, but still have the curled ribbons hanging down~over the dance floor. I hope some of this helps, and you have a wonderful night!
Good Luck!!

Cake decorating ideas and piping tips – How to decorate a cake
http://bit.ly/betty_crocker_youtube
Decorating a cake is easier than you think. Watch baker and author Liv Hansen for Betty Crocker Kitchens demonstrate how it’s done. After you practice a little, you’ll be piping like a pro.
Cake decorating ideas and piping tips
How To Make A Pastry Cone
1. Roll out a square of parchment paper. Fold bottom edge up in a triangular fashion until it meets the top edge. Cut parchment from the roll. You will be left with a triangle.
2. Open the parchment. Use the crease as a guide to cut your triangle out.
3. On the long side of one of the triangles, draw a small line along the top of the parchment in the middle. This is where your point will form.
4. Take one corner of the paper and roll it in on itself until the corner lines up with the bottom point. Repeat with the other point, folding the point down and to the back. The two sides will line up down the middle of the cone.
5. Wrap clear tape around the tip of the bag to prevent the point from opening as you use it.
6. To fill the pastry cone, hold it in your hand. Put frosting on a spatula, and place spatula slowly into the bag. Pinch your fingers down on the spatula and slide the spatula out, keeping the frosting in the bag.
7. Fold the edges of the pastry cone into the middle, and roll the top of the pastry cone down to pack the frosting tightly.
8. Snip a small hole in the tip of the bag so you can pipe the frosting.
How To Work With A Pastry Bag
1. You can use either disposable or reusable pastry bags.
2. Open the pastry bag and place a coupler inside.
3. Select the cake decorating tip you want to use. Place the tip on the outside of the bag. Put a ring over the tip and screw the tip onto the bag.
4. To fill the bag, turn the top edge over. Cup your hand like a C, holding the bag, and place the edges of the bag over your hand.
5. Use a spatula to scoop the frosting inside. Fill the bag half full.
6. Bring the sides of the bag back up. Twist the sides of the bag to squeeze the frosting down towards the tip. Squeeze a little frosting back into your frosting bowl to eliminate any air bubbles.
How To Practice Piping
1. Lay a piece of parchment paper onto your counter top.
2. Prepare a pastry bag using a round cake decorating tip.
3. Twist the pastry bag and hold the bag at the back edge. Squeeze this edge to control the flow of frosting.
4. Practice making straight lines. Keep your hand moving at an even pace, and keep even pressure on the bag to ensure you have a solid, straight line.
How To Make a Shell Border
1. Place a star tip on the pastry bag.
2. Hold the bag at a 45-degree angle. Touch the bag down to the paper. Squeeze and hold in place until the design starts to bulge. Release the pressure, pull down onto the paper and release the frosting.
3. Repeat, overlapping the edge of your first scallop with the next scallop.
How To Make A Rosette
1. Place a star tip on the pastry bag.
2. Hold the pastry bag perpendicular to the surface.
3. Squeeze, rotate the bag and tail off. When you stop the flow of frosting, you are tailing off.
How To Make Bubble Letters
1. Use a pastry cone filled with frosting.
2. To make a letter H, make a dot, squeezing and holding the cone in place. Pull straight down, squeeze and hold to make another dot, and then tail off.
3. Repeat, making another line next to the first.
4. Connect the lines in the middle to complete the H.
5. If you want thicker lines, cut a larger hole in the tip of the pastry cone. Keep your scissors perpendicular to the bag when cutting to ensure a nice, neat line of frosting emerges from your pastry cone.
