: It is sad, but it is true people don't, won't or can't do the intricate work, people used to do, Many years ago our church would hold a craft bazaar after
 Thanksgiving, there were many, many things to buy along with a bake sale of goodies of every kind. The bazaar has not been held for probably 20 years now, after that they went to a homemade cookie sale,which  
would sell out in a couple of hours, now rather than bake the ladies contribute money, people really miss the bazarre and the cookie sale, but there isn't enough of us senior citizens to keep it going, and the young ones, either can't, or won't, although they many seem think the senior citizens should keep it going. 


 I know what you mean. Before I stopped teaching classes it was getting like this. People got so they came only for a night out. They didn't even try to learn. That is one of the reasons I quit teaching.

But I am in position to tell you that there are SO many people out there doing their own baking. So I think the drop off is because most women now have jobs and don't have time for the intricate artistry we are use to. I am overwhelmed with customers using the edible pictures and cake kits. See, that means the busy people can do a FAST cake that the kids will like. People are just too busy. Dolores at http://www.sugarcraft.com
