101 Piping
The perfect place for beginners & incredibly family friendly. Learn to use the parchment piping bags that come with your kit. Several different piping techniques. A range of techniques for any skill level. Excellent for fine tuning your skills or for a brand new decorator.
We will start with how to hold the piping bags, piping basics such as dots & lines and work on piped flowers, writing & a few other design elements. You will be able to play with your cake and create a unique design.
Additional Tools
Some additional tools you may need, you may already have these or can purchase from our online store, Ms. B's Sweet Supplies or a local craft supply store.
Scissors, turntable, pointed spatula or sanitized credit card/ gift card.
Advanced Piping & Transfers
Advanced piping is for anyone who has experience piping buttercream or who has taken our 101 class before. We will focus on fine tuning skills, more advanced techniques and introduce the advanced technique of transfers.
A buttercream transfer is when we trace an image in buttercream and freeze it onto the cake. Creating a gorgeous picture without needing the artistic skills of drawing. This requires a delicate piping skill and practice. This class is a great place to learn the tips & tricks from the pros!

We will play with the buttercream as if oils on a canvas. Creating a beautiful, delicious piece of art.
