Heber, I really think that your cake will turn out wonderful because you're putting your "heart" into this cake. Just follow the hints everyone here has given you and then make your cake with the "love" you have for your family and it will be beautiful, even if it turns out alittle crumbly or lopsided, they will appreciate your effort and love you even more than they probably do already!! Good luck with your cake and let us know how it turns out...in the meantime, practice, practice, practice.

If you are getting a lot of crumbs in your icing you can throw your cake in the freezer while you thin down the rest of the icing.

Then with the thinner icing you can re-ice your cake, an effective way to "cover" your mistakes!

But make sure the first layer is on very thin! do NOT gob on your icing!

Also, try Cake decorating ideas, cake tips, cake decorating articles, cake recipes, photos and more. CakeCentral.com, there are TONS of cake answers on there as well. That's where I usually am lurking these days

Get a recipe first and from there identify what you need. In decorating a cake, you'll surely need an icing bag.
