My wife recently became very fascinated by baking, especially cakes.

I wanted to get her some tools/supplies/useful items to help her along.

Could anyone please give advice or point me in the right direction to be able to find utensils that would help her make the kind of cakes she wants to.

Thank you in advance for all advice

I think it's lovely that you want to give your wife such a thoughtful gift! Wilton makes a lot of very good products for cake decorating--everything from cake strips to keep your cakes level to cake saws, pans, decorating bags and tips, you name it. Wilton products are available at most craft stores, and I think that WalMart carries them as well.

If your wife is anything like me, she'll want to pick out what she wants, so I would suggest to take her shopping rather than just buying her an assortment.

I have been decorating cakes for a few years now. I would HIGHLY recommend the starter kit that Wilton offers. It looks like a tackle box. They come in 2 different sizes, but I recommend getting the larger one (mine is light blue with a dark blue top). This has everything from tips, to spatulas, to an instructional book. Worth the money (especially if you can find a 40% Michaels coupon)!
