Step into the world of soft, romantic cake design in this Coquette Cake Class—a stunning introduction to cake carving and vintage (Lambeth-style) piping.
In this hands-on class, students will transform a standard round cake into a beautifully decorated heart-shaped cake—no specialty pans required. You’ll learn how to use a template to carve your cake, giving you a versatile, cost-effective skill you can use for endless designs at home.
What You’ll Create
Each student will work with a two-layer cake that is torted into four layers, then filled, stacked, and carved into a heart shape. From there, you’ll build your cake from the inside out—learning proper structure before finishing with elegant piping details.
What You’ll Learn
This class is packed with technique and designed to give you a strong foundation in cake decorating:
• How to torte cake layers evenly and build a stable cake
• How to fill, crumb coat, and apply a final smooth coat
• How to carve a heart-shaped cake using a template (no specialty pans needed!)

This style involves building multiple layers of piping to create depth and texture, and while it’s beautiful, it can also be challenging—which is exactly why we break it down step-by-step.
