Join this fun class to learn how to turn a basic cake into anything your heart desires. We will be creating 5 different cakes throughout this class. This is a flex class so there are NO live classes but I am available for any questions or concerns you need me to address. You will also have the benefit of watching the videos however often you would like. I will upload my weekly pre-recorded videos on Sundays so you have the lessons to view on whichever day is best for you. Learners are encouraged to upload a picture of their cake in the classroom. These videos are available to rewatch, even after you have finished with the class, in case you need a refresher. There is no knowledge of cake decorating before taking this course. We will start with the basics. Below are the weekly cakes we will decorate. Week 1: Big cookie cake (like pictured) Week 2: Teddy Bear cake Week 3: Cake with smooth frosting technique, simple flowers, and beautiful borders to hide flaws Week 4: Unicorn Cake (like pictured) Week 5: Cake with surprise center and drizzle border technique You will be given my favorite frosting recipe and my favorite cake recipes (although box cakes are good to use) on the first day with the video. Cakes are to be made ahead with a parent. REMEMBER, these videos are meant to do on your own schedule, so you need not have to do them on the day that the videos are posted. Also, if you do not have the following items or cannot purchase them, I will show you items you can use that are probably already in your home. For instance, I will use a simple kitchen knife during the videos but for those who want to purchase a more professional utensil you can purchase a Straight Icing Spatula which you can get on Amazon and decorating tips which are as well on Amazon. You can get each of these items for less than $10 on Amazon. The following link has the tips you will need.
