Shopping!

Have you seen how pricey the cake decorating stuff is at Michaels or Hobby Lobby?!? This is getting to be an expensive hobby. An expensive delicious hobby. But I hope to strike gold at Ace Mart Restaurant Supply (http://www.acemart.com/) in North Austin. If their storefront is anything like their website, they have everything I need for much cheaper. Bed, Bath, & Beyond had only 1 kind of icing spatula ($9.99) but Ace has an actual selection and for less $$$. I'm hoping to get:

• cake pans
• food coloring
• parchment triangles
• spatulas
• cake turners (I had to look these up...they are for lifting cakes)
• decorating comb
• fondant
  

And if they don't have what I want, there's another place close by called All in One Bake Shop (http://www.allinonebakeshop.com/). I'm planning on hitting this place up early Saturday morning so I can get everything I need for making a cake for my parents and for my first class.
