  • Enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis and securing your place in a class requires full payment at the time of registration.

  • If a class reaches full capacity, you have the option to be added to a waitlist. When spaces in the class open up, they will be offered to individuals on the waitlist in the order they signed up.

  • Please be aware that our cakes are made in an environment where nuts, egg, milk, gluten and other allergens are present. We cannot guarantee that any cake is entirely allergen free as cakes are baked in a home kitchen where allergens are present.  If you have a food allergy, intolerance, or coeliac disease – please do speak to me about ingredients in your cake before you book. 

Join me in my home kitchen in Ascot, Berkshire for this cake decorating class. Suitable for any level of cake decorator including complete beginners.

 

What exciting things will we do?

During this class, you will:

  • Decorate a stunning 6 inch, four-layer round vanilla buttercream cake which will have already been baked in advance by me.  

  • Learn how to level, fill and stack your delicious vanilla sponge cake.

  • Crumb coat your cake to keep the crumbs out of the final decoration.

  • Add a final layer of buttercream learning to create the design of your cake class using a cake scraper to achieve a smooth finish.

  • Take your buttercream and decorating skills a bit further with simple buttercream piping on the top and finishing touches depending on the class you book.

 

At the end of the class you will be given a box to take your masterpiece home in with tips on how to transport it safely.

 

The skills you will learn on this course will enable you to replicate this cake and finish again and again wowing your friends and family at each celebration.
