Cookie decorating for any beginner can be daunting. Over the years teaching hands-on cookie decorating classes and exhibiting at cake shows, the most common problem I hear is how overwhelming royal icing decorating and consistencies can be for beginners. I see so many videos where it appears to be all so perfect, but believe me, this is not always the case.
In this class I have intentionally used a ‘keeping it real’ approach which embraces zero editing. The mishaps I make is a lesson within itself and a great way to see hands-on how to correct it. The end goal is for you to gain the confidence and tools to be able to achieve the right royal icing consistencies with a beautiful smooth finish.
With 11 fun designs to create a gorgeous Christmas platter or the sweetest gift for someone, this three hour step-by-step online class will explain a variety of techniques and ideas including:
