About the event

Decorate a traditional rum-infused Caribbean fruit cake, also known as black cake, with marzipan and fondant icing.

Bring a little Caribbean tradition to your Christmas table with a cake you’ve decorated yourself.

Join Danielle at A.T. Patisserie for a relaxed Christmas cake decorating workshop. You’ll work on your own 7-inch Caribbean rum-infused fruit cake, also known as black cake: a rich, dark celebration cake made with rum-soaked fruit.

Your cake will be baked and soaked beforehand, ready for you to cover with marzipan & fondant and personalise. With step-by-step guidance, you’ll create delicate sugar flowers, practise a piped border and add your own festive finishing touches.

Choose classic white decorations or introduce soft touches of colour to make the design your own.

Come with friends, make it a festive date or join us on your own. No previous decorating experience is needed, and you’ll leave with a finished Christmas cake to share with family or give as a special gift.

£99 per person includes:

• Your own 7-inch Caribbean rum-infused black cake
• Fondant, sugar flowers and decorating materials
• Guided tuition and use of all equipment
• A cake board and box to take your creation home
• A drink and a small patisserie treat
