What is National Cake Decorating Day?
National Cake Decorating Day happens every year on October 10th. It recognizes all the professional and aspiring artists out there who don’t make their creations out of paper and paint but out of batter and frosting.
National Cake Decorating Day celebrates the cake decorator in all of us. It encourages bakers of all kinds to express themselves in an edible form and learn new techniques to expand their abilities. Whether you are a flowers-and-fondant kind of decorator or someone who likes using frosting and candy to make a theme come to life, there’s a plain cake roll out there just waiting for you to make it sparkle (figuratively or literally).
