I offer a range of cake classes and workshops so you can craft your own delicate sugar flowers and improve your cake decorating skills! Whether you want to master intricate sugar flowers or have fun cake decorating with friends, there’s sure to be a class suited to you.
I am very excited to bring you this class in collaboration with the multi talented Emma from Thea Lily Loves all the way from Suffolk. This four hour christmas class is perfect to get you in the festive spirit. You will learn how to create amazing crackers using beautiful papers. You just have to bring your own fillings or add them to your crackers at a later date. You will also learn how to decorate four beautiful cupcakes in a christmas theme. Plenty of christmas related refreshments will be available on the day.
The class is aimed at people that have a little experience in cake decorating and have covered a cake before and have worked with florist paste before. Lots of hints and tips along the way. We will be working with dummy tiers.
The class will cover techniques such as:
1. Making a wired peony, roses, buds and leaves.
2. Work with petal dusts bringing flowers and leaves to life.
3. Cover a dummy tier with a sharp edge.
4. Create a rustic tree bark effect.
5. Create a beautiful watercolour effect on the middle tier.
6. Work with gold leaf and lustre.
7. Arrange sugarflowers correctly and learn how to secure them on the cake.
This two hour hands on fun workshop is suitable for anyone, requiring little or no cake decorating experience. During this class you will learn:
1. Use of various piping nozzles.
2. Learn the perfect buttercream recipe.
3. Use of various professional food colours.
4. Explore your creativity styling your own cupcakes.
1-1 classes tailored to your indvidual needs are also available. Pricing begins at £275 for 1/2 day and £400 for a full days tuition.
