Nervous breakdown website

Because of lot's of interest in the visit and masterclass of Peggy Porschen, my website has had a nervous breakdown!
It's Sunday now and ofcourse my webhost will switch on the wright button only tomorrow morning.
I can't even receive or send my emails. So, if they're is a delay in receiving an answer from me, I'm so sorry! I will answer my emails as soon as possible.
In the mean while, if you need to reach me please send your mail to alletaarten@gmail.com

Helaas is mijn website overbelast wegens alle fantastische interesse in het bezoek en de masterclass van Peggy Porschen.
Omdat het vandaag zondag is zal mijn webhost pas morgen waarschijnlijk het juiste knopje om zetten waardoor mijn website en email weer bereikbaar zijn.
Het ontvangen en verzenden van email is tevens niet mogelijk nu. Het kan dus even duren voordat je antwoord krijgt op je mail, in de tussentijd kunnen mails verzonden worden naar alletaarten@gmail.com
Mijn excuses voor het ongemak en wij proberen alles zo snel mogelijk te herstellen!

Sweetopia

With the masterclass in Weddingcakes taught by Peggy Porschen for Sweet Appetite approaching, why not let a student of Peggy tell you how wonderful it is to learn from Europe's most talented and skilled cake decorator and pastry chef. Ofcourse I can go on and on about my experiences in London (and trust me I can..) but they're is someone else who can share her delight of joining a class from Peggy.
Someone who is a very talented lady herself and keeps the sweetest blog!
You probably know her already yourself.. Meet Marian, author of Sweetopia

Sweetopia is Marian's sweet, cute, wonderful place on the internet that teaches and inspires lot's and lot's of cake decorators all over the world! It's about everything relating to sugarcraft and a love of pink :)




In november 2009 Marian enrolled in the Masterclass Wedding Cakes, that Peggy Porschen taught at the Bonnie Gordon School in Canada. She, just like I did, enjoyed Peggy's class: "It's wonderful that you'll be hosting Peggy's class - as you already know, the participants won't be disappointed.
I can’t tell you how excited I was to be able to not only meet her, but take a 3-day class she was guest instructing at the Bonnie Gordon School."


Part of the class were lessons in making Peggy's signature marzipan and sugarpaste roses.


Marian:"Guess what she’s dipping it in? My favorite; disco dust!


To read and see more about Marian's experiences joining Peggy's masterclass go to Sweetopia. Be prepared, when you leave for Sweetopia, you won't go back for a long time!

Moving

If all went well, you found me again! Well, you found my blog again..
As I told you all before, I'm changing the name of my business from "Alle Taarten" (meaning Every Cake) into Sweet Appetite.
And ofcourse my blogs name had to change then too.
But..I have to admit, I'm not that good with computers. They sort of always end up confusing me. And then I sort of always end up confusing everyone else with my emails, adress switch, etc.


After a few attempts (read 3 hours of attempts) I decided to send all of you who follow me a quick message. Hope you don't mind :) To make sure you found my blog again.
I kind of feel right now like someone from the stone age, but I think, I hope, no, I wish, my move attempts worked...
Did they?
