My friend Alyssa asked me back in August if I wanted to take a cake decorating class with her. I quickly took the offer as I thought it would be something fun to learn. The class is a series of 4 Saturday classes, each class being 3 hours long. Once signing up, I had a huge task to undertake--buying supplies! There is quite an extensive list of supplies needed for the 4 classes. I decided to start buying early and taking adventage of the coupins offered for Hobby Lobby and Michaels. The stores soon became a stop on my drive home from work to pick up another supply.
For the first class, we were required to bring 6 sugar cookies along with a bag of other supplies. I felt strange bringing in store-bought or roll-out dough cookies so I decided to try making homemade cookies. I got Tripp to help and before we knew it we had made a batch of sugar cookies coming out of the oven.
In the class, we learned about: how to bake a great cake, cake pans, making homemade buttercream icing, tinting icing, piping bags, tips, piping stars, piping rosettes, piping shells, and more.
How much fun! You need to practice on your skills for your coworkers :)
