We are here to help you with your cake decorating skills! In this class you will learn how to properly build, fill, crumb coat and ice a cake with close to perfect edges and borders. You will learn tips and tricks on how to work with buttercream and advice on baking. This class is perfect for first-timers as well as students who need a refresher.

This class can be a little messy so please wear something that you don't mind getting a little buttercream on or bring your own apron.
