This immersive 3-hour session guides students through the technical process of building, frosting, and decorating a professional-grade layer cake. Participants will master the fundamentals of building a structurally stable cake and learn how to create a beautiful finish using dried, pressed florals and a smooth buttercream finish.
What You Will Learn
- Tool Discussion: Learn which tools will help you achieve a professional look and structurally sound cake vs. which ones are unnecessary.

- Structural Assembly: Learn to apply simple syrup for moisture and construct a buttercream "dam" to securely hold interior fillings.
- Frosting Mastery: Practice the "side-to-side" motion for smooth application and use an icing smoother to achieve professional "live edges" and gap-free sides.
