Class experience
Here by popular demand, this course will take a much more methodical approach to cake decorating than we do in my fast paced “Beginner to Cake Boss in 5 Days!” course. This course is set up for the absolute beginner in mind with plenty of time to grasp each step and concept. We will not be baking a cake or decorating a real cake during this course since there’s already plenty to learn before that step. There are minimal supplies needed for this course.

CAKE DECORATING SUPPLIES: At least 3 pastry bags (reusable or disposable but not ziplock bags) At least 3 couplers with rings At least 1 cake decorating food coloring paste These are the tips we need for this course. I’m giving you the Wilton brand for reference so that you can purchase what you can find. 1 Star tip: #18, #21, or #32 1 Writing tip: #3, #5 or #7 1 Writing tip #12 1 Leaf tip: # #352, or #70 Small cake turntable is optional but useful when decorating cakes SUPPLIES FROM YOUR KITCHEN Something round, rectangular or square like a pot or plastic container to practice on for the last day. The Dollar Tree has cute little 6 inch Styrofoam that you can stack up and decorate. You might need to hot glue them or put some toothpicks or something through it to keep them together. They also sell a nice large white rectangular plastic dish pan that could be trimmed down some and used like a sheet cake. Be creative! Wax paper or like a cutting board or cookie sheet, something to pipe frosting on. Parchment paper to make parchment paper bags Electric mixer Large Ziplock bag to store filled pastry bags Spatula Sieve or a whisk Measuring cups and spoons Ingredients for the frosting A sheet protector(s) There’s a nice one in the teacher supplies at Dollar Tree with math practice papers.
Students may need help using the electric mixer to make the frosting. They may also need help printing out the practice sheets.
Nothing more rewarding, as an educator, than to see faces light up with joy after accomplishing something they thought was much too difficult to accomplish! Sometimes, a learner needs to be gently nudged beyond what they think they can do. Tears...
