17/08 Cupcake Bake and Decorate

Service Description

During this 3 hour class, you will work in pairs to bake deliciously light cupcakes in a variety of flavours (we usually make vanilla bean, lemon & chocolate in the session, with several other flavour ideas listed in your handout to try at home). While they bake, you will learn the basics of sugarcraft - colouring sugarpaste and cutting out a variety of decorations (such as flowers, butterflies and birds) to adorn your cupcakes. When your cupcake have cooled, you will learn to make buttercream in different flavours (to match your cupcakes) to pipe in stunning swirls on top of the cupcakes. You will get to try out different nozzles and styles of piping to create a variety of buttercream designs. You will then get to choose the best of your sugar toppers to add to your cupcakes. Each person will take home a box of 6 cupcakes in a mix of flavours that will be their own designs and creations. As with all our classes, the equipment and ingredients are all provided for you and you will take home everything you make, along with a handout containing all the recipes and tips from the day. There are a maximum of 8 people on the class so you receive all the attention you need to create a beautiul set of cupcakes. The class is perfect for beginners as well as those who have baked before but want to pick up some tips to make their cupcakes taste even better and look professional. This class does not require any experience - it is perfect for beginners as well as those who have baked before but want to perfect their cupcake techniques. This class would be suitable for children aged 9 and over if attending with an adult, or for children aged 12 and above if attending alone or with a friend.
