Today is an exciting day!! As many of you know, I. LOVE. CAKE. From baking to decorating to (of course) eating it, cake will always be my favorite dessert.
As a self-taught baker, over the years I have learned a LOT (i.e. failed a lot), and picked up so many tips and tricks along the way. And I want to share them with YOU! I have had this dream for over a year to bring cake classes into your home and I’m finally taking a leap of faith and going for it!
If you want to know all of the details and how to sign up, keep reading!!
What can I expect during a cake class?
While we won’t be actually baking a cake, this is a HANDS-ON class! We’ll begin by going over a few tips and tricks for baking the cake we are decorating. I will provide the recipe (which you can take notes on) as well as a document with my top tips for baking perfect cakes. Each person will have their own tools, three cake layers, and frosting. We will go step-by-step on how to assemble and decorate the cake. I’ll make sure you leave class knowing how to get a level cake, smooth sides, and sharp edges! We’ll end class by slicing up my demo cake to eat (yay!). Each person will get to take home their decorated cake.
Where are the classes located?
In the comfort of your own home! Or your friend’s house, because she has a giant kitchen island. 🙂 I will bring all of the tools, pre-baked cakes, and pre-made frosting into your home, but the host will need to have adequate counter or table space (a large kitchen island or table is ideal). Unfortunately, I will only be able to host classes in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
What do I need to provide and/or bring?
Yourself! Along with your friends or whoever you would like to invite to the class. I will bring all of the tools, pre-baked cakes, and pre-made frosting. I do need to a sink nearby and adequate room for everyone to decorate their cake.
Included in the class:
- 3 layer 6 inch cakes for each person
- buttercream frosting/any additional decorations for the cake
- all tools & materials
- boxes to take home your cake
- cake recipe & tips
Can I purchase the decorating tools after class?
Yes! I will have a price list available and you can purchase the turntable, offset spatulas, and cake scrapers following class. I accept cash, Venmo, and PayPal.
How many people can I invite to participate in the class?
At this time, the class has a minimum of 4 people (or must meet a $200 minimum), and a maximum of 8 people.
How long is the class?
You can expect for the class to last about two hours. Please note that I will need 30 minutes prior to the start of class to set up.
How much is the class?
The class is $50/person (introductory price right now!). I request a 50% deposit to book your class and the remaining balance is due at the time of the class. I accept Venmo, PayPal, and cash.
Can I bring alcohol?
Yes! Cake decorating is FUN, so feel free to provide your own beer or wine for your cake class.
