Class Description 

In this hands-on class led by one of our highly skilled decorators with 10+ years of custom decorating experience  you will leave this class feeling more confident and comfortable decorating your next celebration cake at home! Your cake will come assembled already and thick iced, so we can spend time in the class learning piping techniques. However,  you will receive a full demonstration on how to torte, fill, crumb coat, thick ice, and decorate a 3-layer, 6-inch cake!

The guided demonstration will show how to use basic tools and techniques to begin cake decorating! This will include tips and tricks on how to fill, hold and use a piping bag; how to level, tort, fill and frost cakes; how to thick ice your cake with sharp edges.

Afterwards, we will demonstrate and practice different piping techniques using piping tips in different ways to create a beautifully decorated “knitted sweater” style cake. 

Other highlights include how to properly store your cakes, how to cut your cake, and how to use our cake and buttercream recipes! 

Recipes and reference sheets will be included to practice your skills at home! There will also be additional recommended tools for sale that we use at the bakery. Check out one of our more advanced classes in the future to go more in depth after you’ve tried the basics!

Pro-tip! Your creations can be frozen to save for serving at a later date! Just ask your instructor for proper storage!
