The workshop in June is entitled ‘the Secret Garden’ and entails decorating cupcakes around this theme. Specifically we will be making mini edible roses, leaves and flowers. Plus toadstools, butterflies, ladybirds and bugs and other edible delights associated with the ‘Secret Garden’. We will also be demonstrating buttercream piping techniques such as ‘edible grass’ and how to achieve the ‘soil effect’ for creating your own genuine-looking mini Secret Gardens.

The course will be held in Heswall, Wirral on Sunday 12th June and will run for 3 hours. This is a great workshop for parents with kids (over the age of 8) or adults alike, who wish to hone or learn new skills. The course aims to be informative but also, and most importantly, fun! The price of the workshop is £65 for adults and £35 for kids, including 6 cakes to take home (per person), refreshments, all your materials and a certificate of attendance!

Our morning workshop (10-1) is for mums or dads with kids and the afternoon workshop (2-5) is for adults only!

The July workshop is a more intensive all day course for adults only:

We also have a full day course on July 10th (adults only), this is more than just a workshop in that it is quite intensive, covering loads of techniques such as making sugarcraft flowers/buttons/ribbons etc, buttercream piping techniques and working with & covering cupcakes in fondant icing, embossing icing etc (you do not need any previous experience). The day will run from 10am till around 4pm with about forty minutes for lunch. Lunch will be a lovely afternoon tea and is included in the price of the course, as are all your materials.

The class costs £149 and is held in Heswall on the Wirral on Sunday the 10th of July. At the end of the day you will take home 2 boxes of 6 cupcakes that you have decorated yourself plus a certificate of attendance, and hopefully lots of new skills that you can put to good use when making your own cupcakes. Although the day focuses on decorating cupcakes we will also provide you with a couple of the best recipes that we use for creating the perfect cupcake so you will be armed with all you need to bake and decorate the perfect cupcake!

The Benefits of Cake Decorating Courses

The best way to learn any new skill is to watch the masters work and then apply what you’ve learned. You can try to simply look up techniques on the internet, but this isn’t nearly as effective. If, on the other hand, you enroll in a cake decorating course, an experienced professional can train you and give you feedback on your work.

There are plenty of other benefits to taking cake decorating courses. This is a great social opportunity, and can be a great way to meet people with similar interests and passions. You can get to know people to share ideas with, or show off your favorite cake creations, or even form clubs and groups to support each other’s work. They may cost a little more than simply looking up a recipe, but taking a cake decorating course has the benefits to justify the cost.

In today’s economy, everyone is looking to make a little spare change to help them with the rising cost of living. Cake decoration is a great way to make ends meet, and there’s no better way to learn than with cake decorating courses. There’s always a market for well-decorated treats, and you can learn the skills you need to impress your clients and attract repeat business and word of mouth. You will have your own section of the local market cornered in no time!

Many people enroll in these cake decorating courses in preparation for an upcoming event. Maybe you’ve looked at the expensive cakes that are custom made at your local bakery and want to take matters into your own hands. Whether they are for birthdays, weddings, or any other special event, enrolling in one of these courses is the best way to ensure that your pastry product will impress and amaze! If you’ve watched the masters work and wished that you could do something like that on your own, then what are you waiting for? Make that dream a reality!
