Pink Cake Box was featured on CNN’s Small Business Segment this week.

In the video, I talk about how the company started, how we’ve used the Internet to grow and how we’ve relied on family members like my mom to help launch the business.

Watch Anne’s appearance on Ebru TV demonstrating easy to follow cupcake decorating techniques.

The video includes quick and easy decorating ideas:

• Explain basics of piping including selecting your tip, setting up your pastry bag, and piping buttercream on cupcakes
• Using shredded coconut decorations for your cupcake topped off with a tropical umbrella
• Using fondant to make acorn and leaf decorations
• Kneading fondant and how to deal with sticky or dry fondant (Shortening vs sugar)
• Decorating cupcakes with Savorski crystals
• The idea of using cupcake displays including tiered stands and cupcake display plates

This is our first attempt at putting together a series of videos demonstrating some decorating techniques with fondant and royal icing on sugar cookies. We broke up the video into 4 parts, click on any image to view the video:

My performance and our video skills are still a work in progress… but we hope you find the videos useful!  You can also view our videos on our You Tube cake and cookie decorating channel.
