No experience needed — just bring your holiday spirit and sweet tooth! All supplies are provided, including freshly baked cookies, colorful icings, decorating tools, and step-by-step instruction. You'll leave with four sparkly showstoppers that look (almost) too cute to eat — and plenty of holiday cheer to share!
