Jumping back in…

I was a professional baker many lives ago. I set my mitts down to climb the corporate ladder for the last 13 years. I was miserable even as I had reached the top of my climb. As happenstance would put it, I was made redundant for the first time in my life a few weeks ago. I decided to bake for some extra cash (the job market is a mess) and to occupy some creative space. I cannot tell you how happy (albeit stressed) I’ve been now that I’ve been designing and decorating cakes and cookies again. Royal icing is definitely a perishable skill though. Maybe it’s my older bones but I don’t remember it being so difficult the first go around. I’m looking forward to getting my skills back 🙂 find me in IG at jilly_got_cake – I’d love to follow some more cookie accounts 🙂 also I’d love any constructive criticism or feedback!
