Class Experience

Lets make some adorable and yummy unicorn cupcakes!
In this class we will be working with fondant to make our delicious decorations. 
This class is great for beginners, we will use simple easy steps to decorate cupcakes.

Cake decorating is a great creative outlet for students and they learn a new skill at the same time. 

What We Will Learn:
-How to use butter cream in piping bags to frost a cupcake
-How to shape and cut fondant
-Using our creativity to decorate a cupcake

We will be decorating at least 3 cupcakes in class feel free to bring more to decorate if we have time! 
Make sure all fondant and icing is colored before class, we will be going over how to fill piping bags but everything needs to be colored.
Videos will be used to show students the different steps.

Hello, Outschool families! 👋

As a homeschooling mom for over 11 years (and counting!), I understand the joys and challenges of balancing lessons while keeping learning fun and engaging. Let me help your student explore exciting topics like animal science, life skills, and more in a way that sparks curiosity and creativity! 🐾🌱

With over 14 years of experience working with children and youth, I’ve taught in various roles, including as a preschool teacher, church youth leader, 4-H adviser, and homeschooling parent. I also taught community classes for children ages 3-15 at my local community college, helping young learners explore new skills in a fun, interactive environment.

I have training in early childhood education, working with children with special needs, and supporting at-risk youth. I also love being creative—whether it’s crafting, sewing, or cake decorating—and I’m passionate about weaving that creativity into every class. 🎨🎂

My family and I live on a small farm with a variety of animals, including my beloved milk cows! 🐄 I’m excited to bring my love of learning, farm life, and hands-on exploration to your student. Whether it’s learning about farm animals, building life skills, or exploring science, I’m here to make learning engaging and fun. Let’s start this adventure together!" 🌟
