From Frosting Frustration to Baking Bliss: How I Automated My Cake Decorating Process πŸ°πŸ’»

Ever dreamt of perfectly piped buttercream flowers, but found yourself battling with a shaky hand and a stubborn frosting bag? πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ

I did! But then I decided to take a different approach: Baking with Code. 🀯

I've always loved baking, but decorating was a struggle. So I challenged myself to automate the process using Python and a Raspberry Pi. πŸ€–

The result? A custom cake decorating system that lets me:

  • Program precise frosting patterns: From swirls to intricate designs, the possibilities are endless.
  • Control the frosting flow: No more messy spills or uneven application.
  • Save time and effort: Let the machine do the work while I focus on the fun stuff!

This project has been a rewarding journey, combining my passion for baking with my love for coding. πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»πŸ°
