I mentioned in one of my previous posts about starting to think about running cake decorating classes in the new year, so I thought I’d get your views. Firstly, do you think they are a good idea? Would you/your friends/relatives etc be interested in attending a class? Secondly, what type of thing would you be interested in learning? I have a few ideas but I’d love to hear what you would find most useful:
- making cupcakes
- decorating with buttercream
- covering large cakes with fondant
- making sugar roses
- piping with royal icing – writing and simple decoration
- piping royal icing flowers
- parent and child cupcake decorating classes
- decorating cookies
There was also some interest when I mentioned about putting some tutorials up on my blog. Again, I’d love to hear ideas of what you’d like to see. Thank you!

I’d definitely be interested in something like the piping with royal icing as I’m totally pants at it lol.

Thanks Shona, I’ll add that to my list then – seems quite a popular choice. Royal icing used to scare me but we are coming to an understanding now! š
Bless you Vonnie! You and Findlay would be most welcome to come down any time. You would probably be my most well travelled student š
