About this Event

Join Chef Dawn Alston of Ravy Cakes, LLC, competitor on Food Networks, The Wedding Cake Championship for a fun & festive Snowman themed Cake Decorating Class with Fondant.

Each team will receive a six-inch, two-layered crumb-coated cake. The teams will learn how to apply the final buttercream to the cake, create fondant decorations, and learn how to cover the cake with fondant while creating a winter wonderland snowman!

This hands-on class is perfect for parents, grandparents, or guardians to bond with their little ones while learning the art of decorating with fondant. We will work with delicious cakes and buttercream, colorful fondant, and the teams will learn beginner friendly techniques like draping the cake with fondant, creating a carrot nose, scarf, snowflakes, plus more!

Light refreshments will be served.

The teams will receive a cake box to take their creations home
