    Cake making and cake decorating can be a unique opportunity to explore a fresh industry specially after working in an office for 8 years. Nothing more exciting and challenging than pursuing different job opportunities till you get to a point where you enjoy what you do. So yes, it can be a practical idea if done right.

    Too many cake decorators in this world.

    Many have gone to school for 4 years for this and not found jobs.

    Remember. Things you love don't always pay the bills

    Before dropping 40K to 80K for a school do your research

    you'd have to be working a pretty busy bakery to get full time hours as a cake decorator - probably no health benefits
