Answer:
If you want to become a cake decorator, a good way to start is by taking Wilton Classes at the local Jo-Ann's or Michael's. They are inexpensive, and give you the basic skills. They can even qualify you to get a job as a cake decorator at a grocery store or bakery.
Bakers usually start early in the morning. However, if you have a wedding cake business, the hours may be different and include lots of weekends.
