BOOK A CAKE DECORATION COURSE AT OUR STUNNING VENUE IN
THE HEART OF THE COTSWOLDS




CELEBRATION CAKE MASTERCLASS

In this workshop you will learn how to create the most perfect celebration cake, starting from filling and assembling the sponge cakes into stacked layers, going on to create a perfect buttercream or ganache coating to provide a perfect base structure which has a flat top, sharp edges and straight sides.  You then learn how to apply a marzipan coat (which is not essential but used by the top sugar artists to create professional wedding cakes) and go on to create a perfect finish to your cake in fondant.  You are taught how to create soft shoulder edges and very sharp edges to your celebration cake.  The course also includes stacking, dowelling and tiering instructions, and includes a section of the principles of good design and structure.  This course is ideal for anyone want to learn how to create a professional celebration cake for a wedding, special event, or just to improve your skills to achieve the more modern style of larger cakes.  The course is suitable for absolute beginners in addition to improvers. 

Many of our students who have completed this course have gone on to create the most amazing wedding and celebration cakes both for private use and for their cake decoration business.  In order to give our full and upmost attention to the student on this workshop, we run this course only as a one to one class or two students sharing the class, therefore we are able to be flexible with workshop dates and there are no set dates, we just agree a suitable date to run the class for you.

  For more details and full information please contact us, ideally by telephone, so that we can chat through the full course details with you.


ROYAL ICING/PIPING MASTERCLASS


This workshop is designed to teach you everything you will need to know to create beautiful finishes on cakes, whether they be large wedding cakes, celebration cakes, mini or cupcakes.  We start by teaching you the perfect way to create royal icing, and then how to use this in three different strengths for piping, stencilling, brush embroidery, cookie toppings and the new modern techniques used on Wedding Cakes to create 3D overpiped flowers to resemble the lace of a bride's dress.  

All of this is done in a one day workshop - for more details please give us a call.
