    How can anyone cut a cake that is such perfection? Swati, I wish I knew of a master teacher like you to take lessons from. We have Wilton here, but I don't believe they are as sophisticated and specialized as you are, as much as I love buttercream.

    And thanks for the lovely award. I will acknowledge when I get a free moment. : }
