In this hands-on cooking class with Chef Stacey, you’ll learn how to prepare cake batter, how to craft homemade buttercream frosting and how to make edible decorations. You’ll begin by mixing, then baking, your choice of vanilla or lemon sponge cake batter. Next, you’ll whip up a light, creamy buttercream frosting. Chef Stacey will then teach you how to precisely cut and layer your cake. You’ll also learn hand-piping techniques, and how to temper chocolate decorations. At the end of the class, you’ll take home your gorgeous creation to share with friends and family.

Was our first time so we are part to blame but measurement she used was difficult to convert and having the ingredients already set aside wasn’t advised either so it was really an waste and she didn’t seem to wanna slow down like she was in a rush or something not enjoyable and won’t do it again
