About this Event

Let it snow... with buttercream and white chocolate!

Join Chef Dawn of Ravy Cakes, LLC competitor on Food Network Wedding Cake Championship for a magical cake decorating experience where winter wonder meets edible art!

In this hands-on class, you'll learn how to create a stunning snow-themed drip made with white chocolate ganache, various buttercream piping, create shimmery snowflakes with fondant, & more! You will also decorate a cookie topper for the cake.

This class is perfect for the holiday season or any winter celebration.

Under the guidance of a Chef Dawn, you will master a ton of beginner cake decorating techniques.

All materials are provided — just bring your creativity (and maybe a friend or two)!

Whether you're a beginner or a baking enthusiast, you'll leave with a beautiful, fully decorated 5-inch two-layer winter wonderland drip cake and new skills to impress at your next gathering.

All items and tools needed to decorate the cake will be provided for use during the class only. This is a great class for beginners or if you need a refresher.
