Did you know Custom Cakes has a You Tube channel? We do! I wanted to share tips and tutorials from my sugar world and You Tube seemed the best way to go. Talking is a better way of communicating for me as I don't have the gift of writing...however I can talk a blue streak as those that know me will attest.
Most of what you will see are the day to day things we have going on in the shop. These are tips that I think others may find helpful. Once a month we will be uploading a more professional video, like our Southern Magnolia tutorial. My very talented son, Jon, has a small production company with a really fancy camera and has agreed to produce some of the videos...so I will save him for the big stuff.
The Southern Magnolia tutorial is the first in a series of sugarpaste flower tutorials we have planned. I designed a set of cutters for the southern magnolia and they are now available at Flour Confections. In fact all of the supplies used in the video can be found on their site. I know the owners, Scott and Lisa, they carry everything in the sugar arts world and their customer service is incredible. If you haven't shopped with them, be sure and give Flour Confections a look.
Here is the link to our channel : Savannah Custom Cakes on You Tube. Please feel free to take a look and subscribe if you would like to be notified of new postings.
Thanks for looking!

Many thanks to you, Minette! Your Southern Magnolia tutorial is OUTSTANDING and you are most generous to share it with the sugar arts world via YouTube. Thank you for noting in your blog post that your magnolia petal cutters are available from Flour Confections; I will be ordering those cutters shortly. Where would I find the cutters you use for your magnolia leaves? I will be ordering the magnolia leaf veiners you mentioned from First Impressions. Thanks again for your generosity in sharing your sugar artistry!
